A jar holds 16 ounces of honey. A cook is going to make two recipes. One of the recipes calls for 2.5 ounces of honey, and the other calls for 4.25 ounces of honey after the cook has made those two recipes, how many ounces of honey will be left on the jar ?
Hey! Hope that I can help. To do this, you will need your original 16 ounces to be the first number, because you're subtracting the other two. So putting in the other two, you get 16 - 4.25 - 2.5, which equals 9.25 ounces.
