Jolie uses 2 tomatoes every day to prepare her salad. If n equals the number of tomatoes Jolie had before she made her salad and c equals the number of tomatoes left after the salad is made, which equation represents the number of tomatoes Jolie has after she made her salad?

n = 2 − c
c = n − 2
c = 2 − n
n = c − 2
please just give me the answer.

The answer is c = n - 2

n - the number of tomatoes before the salad is made
c - the number of tomatoes after the salad is made


Jolie uses 2 tomatoes (n - 2) every day to prepare her salad and then c tomatoes remained: n - 2 = c
Or:
c = n - 2
