Question

Write an equation for the word sentence:
24 less than the number of snakes is 35

Answer 1

Answer: If we let "the number of snakes" be represented by the variable "s", we can write the equation as:

s - 24 = 35

This can be simplified by adding 24 to both sides:

s = 59

Therefore, the number of snakes is 59.
