How many files did Edith organize in the morning? ** Edith has already organized 60 files / 2 = <<60/2=30>>30 files in the morning.
How many files are left to organize? ** She has files left to organize so she must still have 30 + 15 = <<30+15=45>>45 files in the office.
How many files are missing? ** This means there are 60 total files – 45 organized files = <<60-45=15>>15 missing files.
