1 1. My project requires 7m of lace. Joy gave me 2-m of red lace and 3-m of gold lace. 5 How many more meters of lace do I need to buy?
Answer:
You already have a total of 2 meters + 3 meters = 5 meters of lace.
To complete your project, you need 7 meters of lace.
Therefore, you still need to buy 7 meters – 5 meters = 2 meters of lace.
- simply subtract the total length of lace you already have from the required 7 meters:
- Total lace you have = 2 meters (red lace) + 3 meters (gold lace) = 5 meters
- Now subtract this from the required 7 meters:
- 7 meters (required) – 5 meters (total you have) = 2 meters
