So the equation is 25 + d = 48

Simplifying
25 + d = 48

Solving
25 + d = 48


Solving for variable 'd'.

Move all terms containing d to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-25' to each side of the equation.
25 + -25 + d = 48 + -25

Combine like terms: 25 + -25 = 0
0 + d = 48 + -25
d = 48 + -25

Combine like terms: 48 + -25 = 23
d = 23


Simplifying
d = 23


To make sure we are correct add 23 and 25
25 + 23 = 48

Answer: 23

Hope it helped you out today
