Hey there!

To solve this you need to subtract 245 - 132 to get the value of X

245 - 132 = 113

X = 113 So Sierra has 113 minutes of music

Hope this helps! :)

245-132=x
since riley has 132 out of 245, you would subtract her number from the original number and get sierra's number of minutes which is x
