Here is one example of when you would use the friendly number strategy to subtract.
42 - 18

We will turn the 18 into a friendly number, which is going to be 20. 

(42 + 2) - (18 + 3)
44 - 20
Now it is easier to subtract 44 - 20 than it is 42 -18. With 42 - 18 we would have to barrow whereas with 44 -20 we do not have to barrow and we can do it in our head easier and makes it faster.

Tresset [83]
Original:
<span>The width and length of a rectangle are consecutive odd integers
</span>so W = x and L = x + 2

<span>If the length is increased by 5 feet, then new L = x + 2 + 5 = x + 7
</span>
A = L x W
60 = (x + 7) x
60 = x^2 + 7x
x^2 + 7x - 60 = 0
(x - 5)(x + 12) = 0
x = 5 and x = -12

From here you have x = W = 5 ft and L = x + 2 = 5 + 2 = 7 feet

Area of original = 5 x 7 = 35

answer 
<span>the area of the original rectangle: </span>35 ft^2
