Janelle had 26 green marbles. Then she bought 6 bags of blue marbles. There were 10 marbles in each bag. She created a gift of 6 green marbles and 8 blue marbles and gave it to a friend. How many marbles does Janelle have now? Let's answer step by step:
Janelle has 6 bags * 10 blue marbles = 60 marbles. Janelle has a total of 26 green marbles + 60 blue marbles = 86 marbles. Janelle gave away a gift of 6 green + 8 blue marbles = 14 marbles. Janelle has a final amount of 86 marbles - 14 marbles = 72 marbles. The answer: 72.
