Question

Nineteen more than a number is 33. What is the number? 33 n 19

12

14

16

52

Answer 1

14; B

Explanation:

You know that x + 19 = 33.

If you subtract 19 from both sides you get 14.

or you could think of it this way:

if you have 19 things and there is another person that has x amount, but all together you have 33 things/items. Then you have to subtract in order to figure out how many things the other person has.

And you can check your work by just adding 19 and 14 which will indeed give you 33.

Hope this helps you out!
