Consider that to take into account the number of flowers Tina is going to have, it is necessary to use the subtraction.

Tina picks 18 flowers, after she throws away 3 flowers, she has:

18 - 3 = 15

now, she has 15 flowers.

Next, she gave to her mother 8 flowers, after this, she has:

15 - 8 = 7

Hence, Tina has now 7 flowers:
