Hello!

Answer:


\Large \boxed{\sf r = 37}

Explanation:

r represents Raj's savings.

So:

50 is the sum of 13 and Raj's savings.


\sf 50 ~= ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~13 ~~+~~~~~~~ r

So we have this equation:


\sf 50 = r+13

Let's solve this equation:

Subtract 13 from both sides:


\sf 50-13 = r+13-13

Simplify both sides:


\boxed{\sf r = 37}
