Since multiplying by 0.5 is the same as dividing by 2, the problem is described by the sentence
"Half the sum of a number and 40 equals 200"
V + f − e = 2
<span>Add -2+e to both sides. </span>
<span>v + f − e -2+e = 2 -2+e </span>
<span>On simplification, we get </span>
<span>v + f − 2 = e </span>
<span>Yes, that is the solution for e.</span>
