if u received 2 dozen items and sold three of those items the first day, how many of those items are left?

2 * 12 = 24

24 - 3 = ?

21

To find out how many items are left after selling three of them, you first need to determine the total number of items you received, which is 2 dozen.

One dozen is equal to 12 items, so 2 dozen would be 2 multiplied by 12, resulting in 24 items.

After selling three items, you subtract that number from the total number of items: 24 - 3 = 21.

Therefore, there would be 21 items left.
