Omar had 7 goldfish in his tank. He has 3 fewer redfish than goldfish in his tank. Omar also has 8 more black fish than goldfish in his tank. How many fish does Omar have in all?

7 Goldfish
7 - 3 = 4 Redfish (because he has 3 fewer or 3 less redfish than goldfish)
8 + 7 = 15 Blackfish (because he has 8 more blackfish than goldfish)
7 Goldfish + 4 Redfish + 15 Blackfish = 26 Total Fish
