Question

Write this word sentence as an equation. 82 is the difference of a number b and 24

Answer 1

b/24=82

Explanation:

Since the difference of an equation is the outcome of division we place 82 as the answer.

Also, since 82 is greater than 24 we can assume that the variable "b" is larger than both 82 and 24.

Answer 2

106 - 24 = 82

Explanation:

b = 106, solve 106 - 24 and you get 82.
