Consider the Q and A. Q: Barney's grocery store sold out all of its items at the beginning of the pandemic, so they ordered extra items to restock the shelves. However, they ended up ordering far too much and have to keep the leftover items in the storeroom. If they ordered 4458 items, sold another 1561 items that day, and have 575 items in the storeroom, how many items do they have left in the whole store?
A: 3472
What is the step-by-step reasoning process?
Step-by-step reasoning process: Barney's grocery store started with 0 items + 4458 they ordered = 4458 items total. That day they sold 1561 items, so 4458 total - 1561 sold = 2897 items. If there are 575 items in the storeroom, then there are 575 + 2897 = 3472 items in the whole store.
