Question

The sum of 88 elephants and x elephants is 145 elephants.

Answer 1

Answer:

x=57

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we need to make an equation to use to solve x.

The sum of 88 and x will equal 145 so the equation will look like this, 88 + x = 145.

Whatever x is, it has to add with 88 to make 145 so we have to use reverse operations.

The opposite of addition is subtraction so we subtract 88 from 145 like so. 145 - 88 = 57, which means x = 57.

If you need me to explain further don’t hesitate to ask me and I hope I helped! :)
