Question

Mr. Two brought in cookies for his class. He gave out half of them in the morning.

At lunch, he gave out 14 more. He then had 8 cookies left. How many cookies did
he start with?

Answer 1

Explanation:

14 + 8 = 22

If he gave half of them in the morning = 22 x 2 = 44

Total cookies = 44

1/2x=14+8
X=2(14+8)
X=28+16
X=44
