Let the actor's initial weight be 'x'
He is then gaining 20 pounds. The clue is in the word 'gaining' as it means 'increasing' or in Mathematics can be related as 'plus'
The expression is: x+20
He then loses 15 pounds. The clue is in the word 'losses' as it means 15 pounds is to be subtracted from the last value
Last value is x + 20
The weight now is x + 20 - 15 = x + 5
There are 14 times in the table. Add up all 14 times, and divide the sum by 14. The result is the "mean 100-meter sprint time," assuming that you've rounded this off to the nearest tenth of a second.

Subtraction will happen in this case.
14ft-5ft= 9ft
10 inches-8 inches= 2 inches

47=20+(2x+y)
Let x represent the African stamps and y represent the Asian stamps.
