Question

Sushil was thinking of a number. Sushil subtracts 3.8 from the number and gets an answer of 53.6. Form an equation with

x
from the information.

Answer 1

x = 3.8 + 53.6

Explanation:

From the info that they gave you, you can tell that the original number is unknown, so that is x. Since Sushil is subracting 3.8, meaning, to get x, you're going to have to do the opposite which is........addition! So, to get x, you have to add 3.8, and 53.6. I hope I make sense!!
