Question

students need to paint 500 pumpkins for the fair. They already painted 193. How many pumpkins are left to paint?

Answer 1

You would subtract the the amount painted from 500.
500-193=307
They have to paint 307 more.

Answer 2

307

Explanation:

total pumpkins = painted pumpkins + pumpkins to paint

500= 193+ pumpkins to paint

Subtract 193 from each side

500-193 = 193-193 +pumpkins to paint

307 = pumpkins to paint
