Maggie's grandmother used 16 limes to make 2 key lime pies. at this rate, how many limes does she need to make 6 key lime pies

the entire expression should be subtracted from 30. to subtract the quantity, distribute the negative sign, which changes the signs on the terms. so, the –2 changes to positive and gets added to 30 instead of subtracted from it.

hope this ! ^w^
