Question

Sophie has $32$ chocolates. If Sophie gives $11$ chocolates to her brother Nick, then how many chocolates are left with Sophie?

• A. $11$
• B. $21$
• C. $31$
• D. $1$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $21$

$\bullet$ Initially, Sophie has $32$ chocolates.
$\bullet$ Sophie gives $11$ chocolates to her brother Nick.
$\therefore$ Sophie is available with $11$ less chocolates of what she initially had.

Chocolates available with Sophie after giving would be obtained by subtracting $11$ from $32$.

Hence, we need to find the value of $32-11,$ which is illustrated below.


Hence, Sophie is left with $21$ chocolates after giving $11$ chocolates to her brother Nick, i.e., option (b.) is the correct answer.
