Question

Chloe was given a large box of 36 chocolates for her birthday. If she eats exactly 2 chocolates each day, how many chocolates would Chloe have remaining 8 days after her birthday?

Answer 1

20 chocolates

Explanation:

I got 20 chocolates as my answer because I multiplied the 2 chocolates eaten each day by the 8 days. She eats 2 chocolates each day for 8 days. 8x2=16. Then, I took the 36 chocolates and subtracted 16 chocolates eaten to get the answer of how many chocolates are left. 36-16=20. Therefore, Chloe has 20 chocolates.

Chloe has 20 chocolates remaining 8 days after her birthday.
