Question

Neveah and Clint are baking muffins for the bake sale. They need to bake 30 muffins for their display case. Clint has baked 4 so far, and Neveah has baked 7. How many muffins (m) do they have left to bake? Show your work!

Answer 1

The answer is 19.

Explanation:

To find out how many muffins Neveah and Clint have left to bake, subtract the number of muffins they've already baked from the total they need to bake:

Total muffins to bake - Muffins already baked

30 - (4 + 7)

Combine the muffins already baked:

30 - 11

Subtract:

19

So, Neveah and Clint have 19 muffins left to bake.
