Question

Translate and solve: 12 more than p=67

Answer 1

"more" means that you have to add, so "12 more than p" means
`12+p`.

The result of this operation has to be 67, so the equation is

`12+p=67`

if you subtract 12 from both sides, you have

`12+p-12 = 67-12 \iff p = 55`

Answer 2

p + 12 = 67

-12 -12

p = 55

Answer: 55
