Question

Joshua had 3 5 9 359 yards of his fishing line in the water. Then he reeled in 1 1 3 113 yards of his line from the water. How much of Joshua’s fishing line was still in the water?

Answer 1

246 yards

Explanation:

• 359 yd is under water.
• Then he reeled in (took out) 113 yards from the water.

So the difference in these 2 numbers gives the length of the fishing line that is still under water.

`359-113=246` yards
