Question

A small theater had 6 rows of 23 chairs each. Workers just removed 9 of these chairs. How many chairs are left?

Answer 1

Forgive me if i’m wrong but

6 x 23 = 138
138 -9 =129
Answer: 129 chairs remain

Answer 2

129

Explanation:

6 rows of chairs * 23 chairs in each row = 138 total chairs.

If 9 of these chairs were removed, that becomes 138 - 9 = 129.

There are 129 chairs left.
