Ethan bought a new pack of markers for $3. If he now has spent a total of $24 on art supplies, how much did he spend on supplies before he bought the markers?

it should be 21 dollars. since he paid a total of 24 including the markers and the markers are 3 dollars, tou would subtract the marker price from the total. 24-3=21
