Question

If you grow 738 pumpkins and sell 481, how many do you have left?

A. 481
B. 1,209
C. 690
D. 257

Answer 1

738 minus 481 equals to 257. You have 257 pumpkins left, so the answer is D

Answer 2

All you have to do is subtract since you had 738 and gave away 481. So you can use this equation: 738 - n = 481 OR you just subtract 738 - 481 = 257. D is your answer! :)
