Answer:

Explanation:

x + 7 = 23

When doing this problem, the general goal is to make one side only have 'x'. To do that, subtract from one side the amount that you subtract from the other side.

x + 7 = 23

- 7 = -7 <-- This is where you remove from one side what you remove x + 0 = 16 from the other side.

Now that one side only has X, we can find the answer.

x = 16
