Wade's team will play 30 baseball games this year. They have won 14 games and lost 5 games. How many more games were won?
14 - 5 = ?
9 was the answer that was given on the test. It was marked as incorrect.
14-5 = 9 was marked incorrect
Please ask the teacher about this. Is it possible that the test was not graded correctly?
Btw -- I checked with an experienced math teacher -- and he agrees that 9 is the correct answer.
To find out how many more games were won, we need to subtract the number of games lost from the number of games won.
The number of games won is given as 14, and the number of games lost is given as 5.
To calculate the number of more games won, we subtract the number of games lost from the number of games won:
14 - 5 = 9
Therefore, Wade's team won 9 more games.
