Question

For the bake sale, Lee baked 141 cookies. Esther baked 51 more cookies than Lee. How many cookies did Lee and Esther bake in all?

Answer 1

Answer: 333 Cookies

Explanation:
Let E = Cookies by Esther
Let L = Cookies by Lee
The equation for amount of cookies: E+L

L=141
E=L+51
Substitute L
E=141+51=192
E+L=141+192=333
