Maggie has 4 binders with 30 stamps in each binder. She has 3 binders with 36 baseball cards in each binder. If she gives away 45 stamps to a friend, how many stamps and cards does she have left? Maggie has stamps and cards left.

The number of stamps and cards Maggie has left if she gives 45 stamps to a friend is 183

Explanation:

If Maggie gives 45 stamps to a friend, you must calculate the number of stamps and cards she has left.

You know Maggie has 4 folders with 30 stamps in each folder. So the number of stamps she owns is calculated as:

4 folders*30 stamps in each folder= 120 stamps

If Maggie gives 45 stamps to a friend, then the number of stamps she has left will be calculated as the difference (the subtraction) between the stamps she owned and the ones she gives away:

120 stamps - 45 stamps= 75 stamps

On the other hand, she has 3 binders with 36 baseball cards in each binder. So the number of cards she owns is calculated as:

3 binders * 36 baseball cards in each binders= 108 baseball cards

The number of stamps and cards you have left is calculated as:

75 stamps + 108 baseball cards= 183

The number of stamps and cards Maggie has left if she gives 45 stamps to a friend is 183
