Given

Mr. Russo bought 42 tickets to a Broadway show

He gives 19 tickets to a friend and loses 9 tickets on his way

So, the number of remaining tickets is the subtraction of given and lost tickets from the total tickets i.e.

`\Rightarrow 42-19-9\\\Rightarrow 14\ \text{tickets}`

So, Mr. Russo is left with 14 tickets.
