Q. A crayon company recently changed its labels. It currently has a total of

814

crayons in stock,

156

of which have the new label. About how many crayons with the old label does the company have in stock? Choose the better estimate.

\newline

Choices:

\newline

(A)

600

(B)

1,600

Identify Total Crayons: Step $1$ : Identify total crayons and those with new labels. $\newline$ Total crayons = $814$ , New label crayons = $156$ . $\newline$ Calculate crayons with old labels: $814 - 156$ .
Calculate Old Label Crayons: Step $2$ : Perform the subtraction to find the number of old label crayons. $\newline$ $814 - 156 = 658$ .
