Q. Shelley was playing her favorite video game. Her character started with 100100 health points, but lost 1111 when she got in a fight. She lost 1212 more health points when a monster attacked her. Luckily, a healing spell gave her 2121 health points back.\newlineShelley works out that she now has 9898 health points. Does that sound about right?\newlineChoices:\newline(A)Yes.\newline(B)No, it is much too high.\newline(C)No, it is much too low.
  1. Start with 100100 health: Shelley starts with 100100 health points. She then loses 1111 points in a fight, so we subtract 1111 from 100100.
  2. Lose 1111 points: After losing 1111 points, Shelley has 8989 health points left. She loses another 1212 points due to a monster attack. We subtract 1212 from 8989.
  3. Remaining 8989 health: Post monster attack, Shelley has 7777 health points. She then gains 2121 points from a healing spell. We add 2121 to 7777.
