Yesterday, Daniel had 71 puffs and 56 croissants. This morning, he sold 33 puffs and bought some more croissants. Now he has twice as many croissants as puffs. How many croissants did he buy today?
| |
Puffs |
Croissants |
| Before |
71 |
56 |
| Change |
- 33 |
+ ? |
| After |
1 u |
2 u |
Number of puffs in the end
= 71 - 33
= 38
1 u = 38
Number of croissants in the end
= 2 u
= 2 x 38
= 76
Number of croissants that Daniel bought today
= 2 u - 56
= 76 - 56
= 20
