Question

What plus 106 equals 598

Answer 1

Answer: c = 492

Explanation:

This problem can be visualised as an equation. Basically, what we have here is some number plus 106; this equals 598.

Instead of “some number” we can write c.

So, the equation is:

c + 106 = 598

To find c, subtract 106 from both sides:

c = 492

Therefore, c = 492.

Answer 2

492 plus 106 equals 598

Explanation:

To solve for the missing number, we set up an equation using a variable and the operation in the original question and then solve for the variable.

Let x represent the missing number.

The original equation states that the missing number plus 106 is equal to 598 so our equation becomes:

x + 106 = 598

To solve, subtract 106 from both sides of the equals sign and simplify.

x + 106 - 106 = 598 - 106
x + 0 = 492
x = 492

The missing number is 492. 492 plus 106 equals 598
