To solve the word problem:

  1. There are 6 days until Richard's concert.
  2. Susie's concert is 7 days after Richard's.

To find out how many days there are until Susie's concert, you would add the 6 days until Richard's concert to the 7 days after that until Susie's concert:

\( 6 + 7 = 13 \)

So, the correct number sentence that matches this word problem is:

6 + 7 = 13.
