Question

89 x (100-2) = 98 x (100-x) What should replace 'x' to make the equation true?

Answer 1

x=11

Explanation:

the 100-2=98 so you would need the 98 times 89 on both sides or something that is equal

Answer 2

`\bigstar\bf\:89* (100-2)=98* (100-x)`

`:\implies\tt\:89* 98=98* (100-x)`

`:\implies\tt\:100-x=(89* 98)/(98)`

`:\implies\tt\:100-x=89`

`:\implies\tt\:x=100-89`

`:\implies\boxed{\bf{\gray{x=11}}}`
