Given the numbers, let’s set up an equation:

2 + 6 + n = 15

We can solve this using steps:

1. Simplify

8 + n = 15

2. Subtract 8 from both sides

(8 - 8) + n = 15 - 8

3. Simplify

n = 7

Let’s plug in 7 to see if it makes sense:

2 + 6 + 7 = 15

Because this equation is true, we have found our number.

Our unknown number is 7.

How does the order of operations relate to solving multi-step equations? Use examples of solving an equation, and then evaluatin
givi [52]
The order of operations helps keep answers for multi-step equations similar. If the proper order of operations are not followed, then answers may vary. To show an example:

4 / 2 - 1

The proper order of operations would be:

Divide first, before subtracting
4 / 2 - 1
2 - 1
1

But if subtracting was done before dividing:

4 / 2 - 1
4 / 1
4

So not following the proper order would yield different and erroneous answers.
