Question

Wendy is 25 years old. This is 16 years younger than her brother Ronald. Write and solve a subtraction equation to find ronalds age.

Answer 1

41 - 16 = 25

Step-By-Step:

First, we need to make an equation, since it's a number minus 25 = 16 we can do this:

X - 16 = 25

Then we need to get x alone, you can do this here by adding the - 16 to the other side

X - 16 = 25

+16 +16

Then you'll have your answer

X = 41

Hope this helped!
