Diagram 1:
Total pieces of candy = 3 bags x 70 pieces per bag = 210 pieces
Used for gift bags = 150 pieces
To find the number of pieces left over:
210 - 150 = n
Diagram 2:
Total pieces of candy = 210 pieces
Used for gift bags = 150 pieces
To find the number of pieces left over:
210 - 150 = n
Both diagrams illustrate a way to find n, the number of pieces of candy left over after Greta used 150 pieces for gift bags.
Greta bought three bags of candy. Each bag contained 70 pieces of candy. She used 150 pieces of the candy for gift bags. Which diagram shows a way to find n, the number of pieces of candy which were left over?
