Question

Jamal plays h hours of Fortnite. If Akira plays 3 less than 2 times the amount Jamal plays, which expression represents how much time they play altogether?
What's the equation?

Answer 1

(2h-3)+h

Explanation:
3 less than 2 times the amount means 3-2h.
The problem asked how much time they play in total so that’s where I got the +h from. Then just put the expression together to get (2h-3)+h
