Hi! Since it is asking for the total, you must add!
145+217=?
"six less" = -6
"twice the value of x" = x*2= 2x
2x-6
I hope this helps... if not let me know and I'll try to help again :)
Answer: 166
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of trophies = 3
Total Legos required for all trophies = 324
Number of Legos for largest trophy(A) = 220
Number of Legos for smallest trophy(B) = 135
Number of Legos required for final trophy(C)
=?
Total Legos = [Number of Legos for largest trophy(A) + Number of Legos for smallest trophy(B) + Number of Legos required for final trophy(C)]
324 = 220 +135 + C
324 = 355 + C
324 - 355 = C
-31 = C
135 + 31 = 166
