Question

Seven less than a number is 18

Answer 1

hello!

Let the number be n.

Now, "seven less than a number" means we subtract 7:-

n-7

This expression is equal to 18:-

`\sf{n-7=18}`

`\mathcal{SOLUTION:-}`

• Add 7 to both sides:-

`\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{n=25}}}`

note:-

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)
