Question

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE HELP ME!!!! I NEED THE ANSWER IN ONE HOUR!!! Ben has 57 toys. 15 of them are new, 9 are his favorite ones; 2 are new and favorite. Ben is going to give away all of his toys that are neither new nor favorite. How many toys will he give away?

Answer 1

So.... there are a total of 57 toys, which the new and favorites ones are not going to be sold.

The equation would ultimately go into 57 - (15+9+2), which would equal to 31. Ultimately, he sells 31 toys and have 26 left over.

in short, subtracting 57 with the sum of 15+9+2 would equal to 31 toys which means that he sells the 31 toys.
