Okay! Let's think simply about this and set up an equation.

18 votes + 22 votes + y votes = ?

It has to equal 68 votes because the problem says <em>everyone voted. </em>

All we need to do to figure out how much y is, is to subtract 18 and 22 from 68.

That way, we are left with however many votes the student gave to the <em>3rd candidate. </em>

<u>18 + 22 + y = 68 </u>

<u>y = 68 - 18 - 22 </u>

<u>y = 28 </u>

Your answer is 28 votes
