Subtract 100,000 by 82,052

If you do this correctly the answer would be 17,948 dollars.

Hey there!

The key word in this problem is "How much more" whenever you see that you would usually have to subtract something
So 100,000-82052= 17948

SO the store needs $17948 more money to meet their goal.

I hope this helps! :)
