Question

Joe collected 94 stamps altogether. He collected 27 in April and 34 in May. How many did he collect in June?

Answer 1

If Joe collected 94 stamps which are in April May and June, we could make an equation like this: A + M + J = All stamps

Plug in the values:

`27 + 34 + j = 94`
Isolate J:

`j = 94 - 27 - 34`
Combine like terms:

`j = 33`
He collected 33 stamps in June.
