Question

What number makes the number sentence below true?
35,000 + 50,000 + x = 2,654 x 100

Answer 1

Answer: 211,900

Explanation:

First you have to simplify both sides of the equation. Starting on the right, 2,654 x 100 is 265,400. On the right, 35,000 + 50,000 is 85,000.

Now you have 85,000 + x = 265,400. All you have to do is subtract 85,000 from both sides.

This gives you x = 211,900.
