A jar Contains 64 pieces of candy each day two Pieces are eaten After a certain number of days there are 12 pieces of candy left in the jar write and solve an equation to determine how many days past when 12 pieces are left.
The equation I came up with for this one would be 64=12+2x. When you solve this equation start with subtracting twelve, than take 52 (64-12) and divide it by two to figure out how many days it has been (26 days). Hope this helps!
