My question is: Emma bought 3 dozens of macarons in addition to her 10 pieces of macarons for a party. If 15 pieces of macarons are left over, how many pieces of macarons were eaten? Your thoughts:
Three dozens of macarons are equal to 3 x 12 = 36 pieces of macarons. So Emma has a total of 36 + 10 = 46 pieces of macarons for the party. Therefore, 46 - 15 = 31 pieces of macarons were eaten. The final answer: 31.
