Whats an equation that make x=31 ? like in other words give me an equation where it leads down to 31

MrRa [10]

Sure, that's easy! Here's one

5x + 7 = 162

If I wanted to solve this equation, I would break it down. I'd subtract the result (162) by 7

162 - 7 = 155.

From there I just divide that by 5!

155 / 5 = 31

There it is! Ultimate proof that x is in fact 31!
