Peter has 12 shirts in his closet. They are all green or blue. He has 8 MORE green shirts than blue shirts. How many of each color does he have?

8 Green shirts

4 Blue shirts

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he has a total of 12 shirts in his closet and they can only be either green or blue and there are 8 more green shirts than blue you just need to subtract 8 from 12 to find the number of blue shirts.

12 - 8 = 4

x is variable or an unknown value to find

example:

2x = 5 which means x = 3
