Question

How do i write this in an equation? Marcus had 34 pictures on his camera. After he took some pictures of a sunset, he had 53 pictures on his camera. How many pictures did he take of the sunset? Let p= the pictures of the sunset.

Answer 1

Since he already had 34 pictures from before and then took some more of the sunset, it means that he added 19 more pictures of the sunset. 

p=53-34
p=19
