Answer:

Noah caught 35 Noah on Satuday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Kieran caught 53 Pokemon

Kieran caught 18 more Pokémon on Saturday than Noah did.

Let Noah caught x Pokémon on Saturday.

ATQ,

18 + x = 53

Thie is the equation that can be used to find the value of x.

Subtract 18 from both sides.

18 + x -18 = 53 - 18

x = 35

Hence, Noah caught 35 Noah on Satuday.
