Answer 1

Answer: 77 = 46 + r, r = 31

Explanation:

We will write an equation to represent this situation. Then, we will solve for r by isolating the variable.

Seventy-seven is forty-six more than r.

77 is forty-six more than r.

77 = forty-six more than r.

77 = 46 more than r.

77 = 46 + r

77 = 46 + r

(77) - 46 = (46 + r) - 46

31 = r

r = 31
