How to solve this?. Explain the answer.

Liza read 13 fewer pocketbooks this month than last month. If she read 41 pocketbooks this month, how many books did she read last month?​

Answer 1

The answer should be 28 pocketbooks

No. of pocketbooks read this month = 41

No. of pocketbooks read last = 13 fewer than this month

Total no. of pocketbooks read last month = 41-13= *28*

Therefore, Liza read 28 books last month
