Question

Using the bead table, how many more green beads does Cassie need to pack into Box C so that the number of green beads in Box C is 17 more than the total number of beads in Box D?

1. 21
2. 28
3. 49
4. 53

Answer: 2

Worked solution

Total beads in Box D $= 32$. Green beads needed in Box C $= 32 + 17 = 49$. Box C already has 21 green beads, so $49 - 21 = 28$ more are needed.
