Question

Madison is reading a book that has 232 pages in it. She read 42 pages over the weekend. Then she read 30 more pages Monday night. How many pages does Madison have left to read?

Answer 1

160

Explanation:

She read 42 pages over the weekend and 30 more pages Monday night. Add those together. The result is 72.

Do 232 - 72. You get 160.

In an equation, it looks like this: 232 - (42 + 30) = 160

Hope this helped! :)
