Question

Hayden had 212 gallons of water in his watering can. The seed packet said to use 14 of a gallon for peppers and 58 of a gallon for tomatoes. Hayden then used some of the water for lettuce. If Hayden had 34 gallons of water left over, about how much water did he use for lettuce?

Answer 1

you answer is

121-14-58-34=106

Answer 2

So what I would do first is add 14 and 58 together, then subtract it from 212 to get 140.

Then subtract 34 gallons from 140 gallons, to get 106. So I think it’s 106, Sorry if I’m wrong...
