At the beginning of the week, Paloma opened a new box of 200 coffee creamers. Sixty-seven coffee creamers were used during the week. Which equation could be used to find x, the number of coffee creamers left at the end of the week? A.67x = 200 B.x - 67 = 200 C.x + 67 = 200 D.67 - 200 = x

Help!

Let's say you have a 20 dollar bill. You go to the mall and spend 5.60. How much of the 20 dollars is left?

OpenStudy (a1234):

C. 67 were used, so 67 plus x should equal 200. When you subtract 67 from each side, you will find the number of coffee creamers left.

14.4

OpenStudy (cakt07):

$14.40 left

OpenStudy (mertsj):

So would it be correct to say that the amount that is left (that would be x in your problem) + the amount you spent (the number of creamers used) =$20 ( the number of creamers you started with)?
