To calculate how many more paper cranes Brittany had than Ava in the end, we need to follow these steps:
1. Find out how many paper cranes Brittany made by calculating 34% of the number of paper cranes Ava made.
Brittany = (34/100) * Ava
Brittany = (34/100) * 100
Brittany = 34
2. Subtract the number of paper cranes Ava gave to Brittany from the total number of paper cranes Brittany has.
Brittany = Brittany - Ava_gave
Brittany = 34 - 92
Brittany = -58
3. Add the number of paper cranes Ava gave back to Brittany.
Brittany = Brittany + Ava_gave_back
Brittany = -58 + 14
Brittany = -44
Since the result is negative, it means that Ava had 44 more paper cranes than Brittany in the end.
