Answer 1

a) double

b) subtract 4 from right

Explanation:

a) If we double the number of counters on the left side, to maintain the balance, we should double the number of counters on the left side.

b) 14 oranges = 2 packs and 4 oranges

From this we can conclude that 10 oranges are equal to the weight of 2 packs. So, 5 oranges are equal to 1 pack.

Suppose if we subtract four counters from left side, subtract 4 counters (oranges) from the right side.

So, left side will have 2 packs and right side will have 10 counters(oranges).
