Sorrel has 54 beads, and 16 of them are red. Of the remaining beads, half are yellow and half are green. How many yellow beads does she have?

First subtract the 16 red beads from the 54 total: 54 − 16 = 38 beads remain. Half of those remaining beads are yellow, so 38 ÷ 2 = 19. Sorrel has 19 yellow beads, which is choice B.
