Subtraction Word Problem: Calculate 37 - 7 Shared Bracelets

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

• Step 1: Identify the total number of bracelets they start with.
• Step 2: Subtract the number of bracelets given away.

Now, let's work through these steps:

Step 1: Initially, Maya has 20 bracelets and Rachel has 17 bracelets.
We add these two numbers to find the total number of bracelets they have together:

$20 + 17 = 37$

Step 2: They decide to give 7 bracelets to Danielle.
To find out how many bracelets they have left, we subtract the number of bracelets given to Danielle from the initial total:

$37 - 7 = 30$

Therefore, Maya and Rachel together have $\mathbf{30}$ bracelets remaining after giving away 7 bracelets to Danielle.
