Norachai wanted to make note cards by cutting pieces of paper in half. Before starting he got three more pieces of paper to use. When he was done he had 26 half-pieces of paper. With how many pieces do he start?

Answer: He started with 49 pieces of paper.

Step-by-step explanation:

26 times 2 = 52 pieces of paper;

If Norachai has 26 half-pieces of paper after he finished cutting them in half that means that before cutting he had 52 pieces.

52 - 3 = 49 pieces of paper;

If he had 52 pieces of paper after he added three more, then remove three to get the starting total amount of papers.
