Question

Jeff sold half of his baseball cards then bought sixteen more. He now has 21 baseball cards.

How many cards did he begin with?
2

Answer 1

Jeff would have had 10 cards to begin with.

Then, if Jeff sold half of his baseball cards, he would then have 5 cards.

It says that Jeff bought 16 more cards, so 16 + 5

Well, 16 + 5 = 21. The text says that he now has 21 cards, so this should be a correct answer.
