Peggy fell off her bike and skinned her knees.  She needed two bandages on her left knee and three bandages on her right knee.  If the box of bandages had 8 less than two dozen bandages before Peggy skinned her knees, how many bandages were left in the box after Peggy finished putting bandages on her knees?
How many bandages are in a dozen? ** Two dozen is 12*2=<<12*2=24>>24.
How many bandages are in a dozen minus 8? ** Eight less than two dozen bandages is 24-8=<<24-8=16>>16 bandages.
How many bandages did Peggy need? ** She needed two bandages on her left knee and three bandages on her right knee for a total of 2+3=<<2+3=5>>5 bandages.
How many bandages were left in the box after Peggy finished putting bandages on her knees? ** Therefore, after Peggy finished putting bandages on her knees there were 16-5=<<16-5=11>>11 bandages remaining in the box.
