Will has 20 pounds of apples. He makes

2 batches of applesauce that use 4 pounds

each, one batch of apple butter that uses

6 pounds, and he uses 3 pounds to make

juice. Write an equation to represent how

many pounds of apples will has left, p.

Let p represent pounds of apple left.

We have been given that Will makes 2 batches of applesauce that use 4 pounds  each. So pounds of apple used in 2 batches of applesauce would be pounds.

Further we are told that Will makes one batch of apple butter that uses  6 pounds, and he uses 3 pounds to make  juice. So pounds of apples used in apple butter and juice would be pounds.

Total pounds of apples used in all recipes will be pounds.

We have been given that Will has 20 pounds of apples. So pounds of apples that Will has left would be 20 pounds minus total pounds of used apples.

Therefore, the equation represents pounds of apples that Will has left.
