Here, we're trying to figure out what x means. So, let's!

Basically, this equation says, "What number must you have to reach -24?"

Well, if you subtract 98, you have zero already. So, find a lesser number to remove 98 from.

(after playing with numbers)

74 - 98 = -24

Have a wonderful day/night!
