High School

Jason has 208 baseball cards. This is 52 less than the number of cards that Robert has.

Which equation below best represents this scenario?

A) \( R + 208 = 52 \)

B) \( R - 52 = 208 \)

C) \( 52 - R = 208 \)

D) \( 208 - 52 = R \)

Answer :

Answer:

B) R - 52 = 208

Step-by-step explanation:

Robert has 52 more cards than Jason, who has 208, so Robert has 208 + 52 cards. This can be turned into:

R = 208 + 52

then subtract 52 from both sides:

R - 52 = 208 + 52 - 52

R - 52 = 208

and that's the answer
