Area is length times width so it is 3 times 3 since a square sides are all the same
First you must take into account the variable that is being defined for this case:
c = represents the number of puppies whose eyes are closed.
We can then write the following equation:
15 = 11 + c
Rewriting the equation:
11 + c = 15
Clearing c:
c = 15-11
c = 4
4 puppies have their eyes closed
Answer:
11 + c = 15
4 puppies have their eyes closed
