Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

• Number of marbles at Stephanie $=22$

• Number of marbles given to Maggie $=4$

• Number of marbles given to Sam $=4$

• Number of marbles left at Stephanie

$=$ Number of marbles at Stephanie - Number of marbles given to Maggie - Number of marbles given to Sam

$=22-4-4$

Hence number of marbles left at Stephanie $=16$
