Question

Lori bought 256 pieces of candy to give to her friends. All but 78 pieces were chocolate. In the heat, 49 pieces of chocolate melted. How many pieces of chocolate were not melted?

Total number of melted chocolates is: 49.

The expression to calculate the number of not melted chocolate is,
