Kyan Blackburn · Answer 1

Beth has days of vacation.

She spent:

* 3 weeks = 3*7 days = 21 days at soccer camp

* 5 days at her grandmother's house

* 13 days visiting the Park

That makes 21+5+13=39 days.

She thus has 87-39=48 days remaining.

Madelyn Gould · Answer 2

So 1 week=7 days

3 weeks=7 times 3=21 days

5 and 13

so 87-21-5-13=days left=48 days
