Dennis o dirisa pound e le nngwe ya botoro mo go dirise tsa croissants di le lesomepedi.  O tlhoka go dira dirise tsa croissants di le masome a marataro.  Lebenkele la korosari ga jaana le na le kgwebo e e reng reka pound e le nngwe ya botoro o fiwe halofo ya tlhwatlhwa.  Fa pound ya botoro e ja R4.00, go tla mo ja bokae go reka di-pound di le thataro tsa botoro?

One meatball sub sandwich contains 4 meatballs.  Sidney ordered 3 less than ten meatball sub sandwiches. Then Mark ate 4 of Sidney's meatball sub sandwiches. So Sidney ordered another three sub sandwiches.  How many meatballs were in the sub sandwiches that remained?
Pound e le nngwe ya botoro e dira dirise tsa croissants di le lesomepedi mme o tlhoka go dira di le masome a marataro ka jalo o tlhoka 1*6 = <<1*6=6>>di-pound di le thataro tsa botoro
Botoro ke R4.00 ka pound mme ga jaana e mo kgwebong ya reka e le nngwe o fiwe halofo ya tlhwatlhwa ka jalo bontlha bongwe le bongwe jwa di-pound di le pedi tsa botoro bo tla ja 4*1.5 = R<<4*1.5=6.00>>6.00
O tlhoka di-pound di le thataro tsa botoro mme kgwebo e e leng teng ga jaana ke ya bontlha jwa di-pound di le pedi tsa botoro ka jalo o tlhoka go reka diyuniti di le 6/2 = <<6/2=3>>3 tsa botoro
Tlhwatlhwa ya kgwebo ke R6.00 ka di-pound di le pedi tsa botoro mme o tlhoka go reka diyuniti di le 3 tsa botoro ka jalo 6*3 = R<<6*3=18.00>>18.00 ya botoro

3 less than ten meatball sub sandwiches is 10-3=<<10-3=7>>7 sub sandwiches.
After Mark ate 4 of Sidney's meatball sub sandwiches, 7-4=<<7-4=3>>3 remained.
Finally, after Sidney ordered three more sub sandwiches, there were a total of 3+3=<<3+3=6>>6 sub sandwiches.
If each sub sandwich has 4 meatballs, then the remaining sub sandwiches contain a total of 6*4=<<6*4=24>>24 meatballs.
