Question

Kaylie makes pottery bowls. She made 8 bowls every day for 5 days in a row. Six of the bowls cracked and broke. How many bowls does she have left to sell?

A)40
B)34
C)36
D)32

Answer 1

So to start off, you need to figure out how many bowls she started with. To do this, you need to multiply 8 and 5 because she made eight bowls every day for five days. You should get 40 bowls. Then, you have to subtract 6 bowls from 40 because she broke 6 of her bowls. Forty minus 6 equals 34. So B is your answer.
