Combining the operations
The allowed operations are:
Add the same amount to both sides (either x's or ones)
Subtract the same amount from both sides (either x's or ones)
Multiply both sides by the same number (but not by zero)
Divide both sides by the same number (but not by zero)
(There are others, too, but they are not needed in simple equations.)
The goal is to FIRST add and subtract until we have ONLY x's (blocks) on one side and ONLY ones (circles) on the other. Then, if you have more than one block, you need to divide so as to arrive to the situation with only one block on the one side, which is the solved equation!

We are asked to identify an another way to solve the given problem or this summation 104 + 34 + 228 + 887. We can verify it by doing of performing the summation in a reverse sequence such 877 comes first, then followed by 228, then followed by 34 and lastly added by 104. Therefore, the answer is 877 + 228 + 34 + 104.This is an another way to solve the given problem.
Where is the picture? This question must have an picture/image
I believe it is B, but I'm still unsure !
