Answer:

c = 49

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c = number of cards originally

give away 8 cards

c-8

Now she has 41

c-8 = 41

Add 8 to each side

c-8+8 = 41+8

c = 49

Answer:

49

Step-by-step explanation:

In the end, if she now has 41 cards you have to do inverse operation. Since you subtracted to take away those 8 cards she gave away, you have to add back in 8 cards to the 41 if you want to find what she had before. So, 8 + 41 = 49

Hope this helps! :)
