Mrs. Carver is trying to find out how many lab coats she had initially started the year with. Twelve of her lab coats were ruined, and she is left with 22. Salman said to use the equation c – 12 = 22, he said, "I'm looking for a number, c, that is 12 less than 22, so c = 10." (PLEASE HELP- IM ON A TEST AND THIS IS 15% OF MY GRADE) Which statement best describes the flaw in Salman's reasoning?
A
Salman's answer is right, but he should have just subtracted 12 from both sides of the equation.

B
Salman's answer is wrong, but he explained the equation correctly.

C
Salman's equation is set up correctly, but his explanation of what it represents is incorrect.

D
Salman should have subtracted the 22 from the 12 instead of 12 from the 22.
