PLEASE ANSWER IN A WORD PROBLEM ASAPPPP

Answer 1

N - 7 = 38

-> N = 45

Explanation:

Ok, the difference between two numbers, A and B, is written as:

A - B

Then "The difference of a number and 7..."

is:

N - 7

Where N is the number.

And we know that:

N - 7 = 38

Then with this, we can find the value of N. The way of isolating N, is adding 7 in both sides of the equality, then we get:

N = 38 + 7 = 45
