Choose the equation you can use to solve the following problem.
How many meatballs does Raul still need to make if he already has 25 and needs a total of 32 for Sunday’s dinner?
b represents the number of meatballs Raul needs.
32 + 35 = b
32 – 25 = b
25 – 7 = b
25 + 25 = b
To find out how many meatballs Raul still needs to make, we need to subtract the number of meatballs he already has from the total number he needs. In this case, Raul already has 25 meatballs and needs a total of 32 meatballs.
The correct equation to solve this problem is:
32 - 25 = b
So, the answer is:
b = 7
Raul still needs to make 7 meatballs.
