Question

At a family reunion there were 15 people more family members there this year than at the last family reuinon. there were 46 people at this year's family reunion. how many family members came to the last family reunion?

Answer 1

31 people came last year, I know this because I removed 15 from 46 which equals to 31. This can be done in many ways either by subtraction or by finding the value of x. So, we all know that 31+x = 46 to find the value of x we have to add 15. So, 31+15 = 46 therefore the answer is 31 people came last year.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

46-15=31 people bcz if this time its 46 last time 15 were less so subtraction takes place
