Answer 2

Hey there!☺

$Answer:\boxed{\ 112}$

$Explanation:$

Sanjai had $175 in his bank account before he got paid this week. And now his total is $287. Represent x as how many he got after he paid. So that means you do $175 + x = $287.

$175+x=287$

We have to find x and see how much money he got paid to get 287 in his balance.

$287-175=112$

x is equal to 112. Let's see if $112 makes x true.

$175+112=287$

That makes x true which means he got paid $112.

Hope this helps!☺
