Maya had some marbles. jada took 5 marbles away from maya. now maya has 8 marbles left. how many marbles did maya have at the beginning?

Maya had 13 marbles at the beginning

I know someone else answered already, but I will answer in more detail.

we can write a simple equation to find out the answer mathematically.

8 (number of marbles left) = m (marbles before) - 5

(8=m-5)

add 5 to each side and you will get
m = 13

so, maya started with 13 marbles

3/4
