At the sports day a table counts the points: Team Red has 48, Team Blue 35, Team Green 52.

How many more points does Green have than Blue? We read the two numbers.

Fifty-two minus 35 is 17. Green has 17 more points.

Team Red has 48 points, Team Blue 35. How many points do Red and Blue have together?

Answer and working

Correct! 48 plus 35 is 83 points.
