Question

Michael is collecting sea glass from the beach. He begins with 14 pieces in his collection and adds 3 new pieces per day. How many days will it take Michael to have 80 pieces of sea glass in his collection?

Answer 1

Answer: 22 days

Step-by-step explanation: 22 x 3 = 66, 66 + 14 equals 80

Answer 2

Answer:

It would take Michael 22 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The end goal is to have 80 and we begin with 14

So, 80 - 14 = 66 pieces left to collect

If he collects 3 per day we'll divide 66 by 3, which equals 22

Therefore it takes him 22 days!
