Nolan owns the Wafting Pie Company. This morning, his employees used 419 eggs to bake peach pies. If his employees used a total of 849 eggs today, how many eggs did they use in the afternoon?

Question

​
eggs

Answer 1

To find out how many eggs were used in the afternoon, you can subtract the number of eggs used in the morning from the total number of eggs used today.

Total eggs used today: 849
Eggs used in the morning: 419

Now, perform the subtraction:

849 - 419 = 430

So, the employees used 430 eggs in the afternoon.
