Question

Translate and solve: 12 more than p=67

Answer 1

"more" means that you have to add, so "12 more than p" means $12+p$.

The result of this operation has to be 67, so the equation is

$12+p=67$

if you subtract 12 from both sides, you have

$12+p-12 = 67-12 \iff p = 55$

Answer 2

p + 12 = 67

   -12    -12

p        = 55

Answer: 55
