double check by multiplying 31 by 15 ( 31 x 15 = 465)
She didn’t multiply -1/4 by 12 in order to get -1/4x + 3 = -1
which would change her answer, because then you have to subtract 3 from -1 and get -4. Then divide -1/4 & get 16. It changed to positive because of the division & multiplication rule with two negative numbers.

Hello!
First you find out the amount of balloons by adding them up
10 + 12 + 15 + 8 = 45
Then you add all the balloons that are not green
