Kayleb gathered 30 eggplant fruits from his garden and then cooked
some. Write an expression to represent the number of eggplants he
cooked.
Steps to follow to be able to answer the problem.
1) Decide on your variable.
The number of eggplants he cooked. Use (p) as the variable.
2) Write the expression using the variable (p).
30 – p
3) If the number of eggplants left is 18, then 30 – p = 18.
p = 30 – 18
= 12 eggplants
