Jonah has 36 sheets of green paper and 26 sheets of blue paper. He gives some sheets of green paper to Tova. Now he has 42 sheets of paper. How many peices of greeen paper does he give to Tova

green paper: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

first you make equation to this word problem,

the equation: (36-x)+26= 42

(x)= green paper

now you have to find (x)

subtract both sides with 26 (36-x)+26-26= 42-26

36-x= 16

subtract 36 from both sides 36-36-x=16-36

x= 20

answer check:

x= 20

substitute (x) with 20

(36-20)+26=42

Now you solve the equation

36-20= 16

16+26= 42

42=42
