Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

314 - 123 = 191

After subtracting 123 from 314 cups, it is clear that NONE of the answer are correct. If we multiply 123 by 2, it is certain that it will not be 314. Especially since, 3 x 2 is 6, not 4. 2 x 2 is 4, not 1 and 1 x 2 is 2, not 3, NONE OF THE DIGITS MATCH 314.
