    Full step-by-step solution

    Step 1: Start with 17. Step 2: Subtract 8 from 17. Step 3: 17 - 8 = 9. The answer is 9.

  2. Look at the pattern: โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ | โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ | โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹. How many circles are there in total? Answer: 12 Solution: We see groups of circles separated by vertical bars. Count the circles in one group. That is 4 circles.
    Full step-by-step solution

    Let's break down the problem step by step. Step 1: Understand the pattern. The pattern is: โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ | โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ | โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ We see groups of circles separated by vertical bars. Step 2: Count the circles in one group. The first group is: โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ That is 4 circles. Step 3: Count how many groups there are. From the pattern: Group 1: โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ | Group 2: โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ | Group 3: โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ โ—‹ So there are 3 groups. Step 4: Multiply the number of groups by the number of circles per group. Number of circles = 3 groups ร— 4 circles per group = 3 ร— 4 = 12 Step 5: Conclusion. The total number of circles is 12. Final answer: 12

  3. Emma has 19 balloons. Liam has 15 balloons. How many more balloons does Emma have than Liam? Answer: 4 Solution: Emma has 19 balloons. Liam has 15 balloons. To find how many more, subtract the smaller number from the larger number: 19 - 15.
