Carmen bought a bag of 92 sour candies. She ate s of the candies. Write an expression that shows how many sour candies Carmen has now.

Answer 1

To find how many sour candies Carmen has now, subtract the number of candies she ate from the total number of candies she bought.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are given that Carmen bought a bag of 92 sour candies and ate s of the candies. To find how many sour candies Carmen has now, we need to subtract the number of candies she ate from the total number of candies she bought. We can write this as the expression 92 - s.

Answer 2

The expression would be :

92 - s =

Reason :

Since "s" represents the amount she ate, we have no idea how many she ate so leave the left over value blank. And 92 - s will represent how many she had left after!
