There are 72 apples on my tree at home; 38 are red, and the rest are green. I know 46 of the apples have worms in them, so I can’t use them for cooking. What is the maximum number of green apples I could have left to cook with?​

Explanation:

72 apples.

38 red, and therefore 72-38 = 34 green.

46 have worms, therefore 72-46 = 26 have not.

and so, in the best case you have 26 green apples without worms.
