Aram gave Steve 38 of his baseball cards. He then had 145 cards left. How many did he have to begin with.

Let's solve this!

After giving away 38 cards, he had 145 left. You just simply need to add 145 and 38 to get the sum of cards he begun with. Let's form it into a statement

Number of baseball Aram gave away = 38

Number of cards left = 145

Number of cards he began with = 145* 38 = 183 baseball cards.

You can check your answer by subtracting 183 and 38 which gives you the answer as 145.

Hope I helped! :D
