Solution
Start with 20 pens.
Mike gives you 22 pens: 20 + 22 = 42 pens.
Cindy doubles the number of pens you have: 42 Ã— 2 = 84 pens.
Sharon takes 19 pens from you: 84 - 19 = 65 pens.
So you have 65 at the end.

Calculated Answer

Step by Step Solution

In order to solve problem, you must evaluate (n₀ + n₁) * 2 - n₂.

n₀ =	20
n₁ =	22
n₂ =	19

(n₀ + n₁) * 2 - n₂
Evaluate n₀ + n₁ = 42
42 * 2 - n₂
Evaluate 42 * 2 = 84
84 - n₂
Evaluate 84 - n₂ = 65
65
The answer to the problem and the result of (n₀ + n₁) * 2 - n₂ is 65
