Jose found 14 shells in the beach. He lost the same amount as he has left. Write the doubles addition fact Jose can use to find the number of shells Jose has left.

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of shells found = 14

Number of shells lost equals number of shells left :

Let Number of shells lost = x

Using the relation:

Number of shells lost = Number of shells left

x =number of shells found - number of shells lost

x = 14 - x

x + x = 14

2x = 14

x = 14 / 2

x = 7

Number of shells left = 14 - x = 14 - 7 = 7
