Erik has 2 bags of bird seed. One bag has
10 pounds of seed, and the other bag has
8 pounds of seed. He fills
7 bird feeders
with 2 pounds each. Write and solve
an
equation to find how many
pounds of bird
seed are left.


Sagot :

Answer:

(10 + 8) - (7 * 2) = x, 4 pounds of birdseed left

Step-by-step explanation:

      For the first part of our equation, we will find the total amount of pounds of seeds among the bags (addition).

      For the next part, we will find out how much of the bird seed is used (subtraction).

      Then, it will equal whatever is left.

(10 + 8) - (7 * 2) = x, x = pounds of bird seed left

      Now, we will solve.

(10 + 8) - (7 * 2) = x

(18) - (14) = x

x = 4 pounds of birdseed left
