Mary is an avid gardener. Yesterday, she received 18 new potted plants from her favorite plant nursery. She already has 2 potted plants on each of the 40 window ledges of her large country home. Feeling generous, she has decided that she will give 1 potted plant from each ledge to friends and family tomorrow. How many potted plants will Mary remain with?
Maabane, pele ga a amogela dijalo, Mary o ne a na le 2*40 = <<2*40=80>>80 dijalo tse di mo teng ga dipitsa.
Morago ga go amogela tse dingwe gape di le 18, go raya gore o ne a na le palogotlhe ya 80 + 18 = <<80+18=98>>98 dijalo tse di mo teng ga dipitsa
Kamoso, Mary o tlaa aba dijalo di le 40 *1 = <<40*1=40>>40 tse di mo teng ga dipitsa. 
Go raya gore o tlaa sala a na le  98 - 40 = <<98-40=58>>58 dijalo tse di mo teng ga dipitsa.
#### 58 

Yesterday, before receiving the plants, Mary had 2*40 = <<2*40=80>>80 potted plants
After receiving an additional 18 plants, she therefore had a total of 80 + 18 = <<80+18=98>>98 potted plants
Tomorrow, Mary’s plant giveaway will be 40 *1 = <<40*1=40>>40 potted plants.
She will therefore remain with 98 - 40 = <<98-40=58>>58 potted plants.
