Question

Which of the following questions describes the equation m - 4 = 7?

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is b.

b.What number, when four is subtracted from it, results in seven?

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct option is,

b.What number, when four is subtracted from it, results in seven?

Let m be a number

What number ===> m

when four is subtracted from it ===> m – 4

results in seven ===> m – 4 = 7

Then, the question of option b matches the given equation

The other options match other equations, such as:

a.

What number ===> m

when subtracted from four ===> 4 – m

results in seven ===> 4 – m = 7

c.

What number ===> m

when subtracted from seven ===> 7 – m

results in four ===> 7 – m = 4

d.

What number ===> m

when seven is subtracted from it ===> m – 7

results in four ===> m – 7 = 4

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

A means this 4-m = 7
B is the answer
c means this 7-m =4
d means this m-7=4
