A diner has \( 645 \) napkins. \( 325 \) napkins are used at lunch. \( 113 \) napkins are used at dinner. Melanie says that \( 325 - 113 = n \) napkins are used in all, and that \( 645 - 212 = r \) napkins are left. Is her answer reasonable? Explain why or why not.
Part A
Is her answer reasonable?
A. No, because at least \( 325 \) napkins are used. So, \( 212 \) is too small a number for \( n \) .
B. No, because she adds the number of total napkins used to find \( n \) .
C. No, because she makes an error in her subtraction.
D. Yes, her answer is reasonable.
Part \( B \)
Choose the equations you could use to find the number of napkins that remain after lunch and dinner. \( t \) represents the napkins that remain after lunch and dinner.
A. \( 325 - 113 = t \)
B. \( 645 - 438 = t \)
C. \( 645 - 325 = t\)
