Julie was organizing her stamps. She put

the 25 state stamps in one stack, the 82

flower stamps in another and the soccer

stamps in a third stack. If she has 192

stamps altogether, which equation could

be used to determine the number of

soccer stamps ?

• 192 – (82 +25) = s

• 82 + 25 + 192 = s

• 192 – 82 + 25 = s

• 25 + 82 = 192
