    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given:

    On Monday, a shoe store sold 25 pairs of shoes.

    On Tuesday they sold 17 pairs of shoes.

    On Wednesday 8 pairs of shoes were returned to the store.

    Question asked:

    How many pairs of shoes did the shoes store sell without being returned?

    Solution:

    Total sell of pairs of shoes by the shoes store = 25 pairs + 17 pairs

    = 42 pairs of shoes.

    Pairs of shoes returned = 8 pairs

    Now, actual sell of pair of shoes = Total sell of pairs of shoes - Pairs of shoes returned

    Actual sell of pair of shoes = 42 - 8 = 34 Pairs of shoes

    Thus, 34 pairs of shoes, the shoes store sold without being returned.
