Answer:

2+x

Explanation:

Sum= addition

If the number is not provided we always include a variable and the most common one is X never use t, o, i, l, because you might confuse yourself because they look like numbers when they are variables.

\large\text{Your x value is \bf{unknown}}}


\large\text{So, basically youre ADDING 2 from the unknown number (which is x)}


\bold{Meaning\ your\ equation\ look\ like\ \underline{2+x}}


\boxed{\boxed{\bold{Answer: 2 + x}}}\huge\checkmark
