Question

Luis saved $14 for a skateboard thats costs $52. He can use the equation 14 + m =52 to find how much more money m he needs.How much more does he need?

Answer 1

You need to find "m", which represents how much more money he needs in order to buy the skateboard.

14 + m = 52 Subtract 14 on both sides to get "m" by itself

14 + m - 14 = 52 - 14

m = 38

He needs $38 more

Answer 2

38, Subtract 52-14 this is the answer
