Okay, so I'm kinda stuck right now.

"Last week Amy ran 18 miles more than Anjali. Amy ran 45 miles. Write and solve an equation to find out how many miles Anjali ran."

This is a two-step equation so you know the drill. What I got is x+8=45
Is this right? Or wrong?

Explanation:

So if you make that 8 an 18 it would be right. Hope this helps!
