Lalo has 1,500 minutes per month on his cell phone plan. How many more minutes can he use if he has already talked for 785 minutes?

This is a simple subtraction word problem !
He's already talked for 785 minutes, and he has a total of 1,500

All you need to do is subtract 1,500-785 = 715 minutes

So Lalo still was 715 more minutes to talk!

I hope this helped! Let me know if you don't understand!
