Question

mandy has three apples but one of her friends take one so she buys two more. how many apple does she have?

Answer 1

`\boxed{\underline{\bf \: ANSWER}}`

At first, Mandy has 3 apples. So if she gives 1 to her friend, then she'll have ⇨ 3 - 1 = 2 apples left. Now, if she decides to buy 2 more apples, then she'll have ⇨ 2 + 2 = 4 apples. So, Mandy has 4 apples.
