Madison makes 30 paper boats and sets them afloat. 20% are eaten by fish and Madison shoots two of the others with flaming arrows. How many boats are left? Give me reasons, before answering the question

First find the number of boats eaten by fish: 30 boats * 20% = 6 boats. Then subtract the two groups of boats that were destroyed from the original number to find the number left: 30 boats - 6 boats - 2 boats = 22 boats. So the final answer is 22.
