Question

5 subtracted from a number m is 12​

Answer 1

• As per the data given in the question, we have to find the value of the expression.

       Given data:- $5-m=12.$

       To find:- Value of the expression.

       Solution:-

• Here, we will use the below following steps to find a solution using the transposition method:

• Step 1:- we will Identify the variables and constants in the given simple equation.

• Step 2:-then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.

• Step 3:- Transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.

• Step 4:- Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in rule 1 or rule 2 of linear equations.

• Step 5:- Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation. By using the transposition method. we get,

          $\Rightarrow m-5=12\\\Rightarrow m=12+5\\\Rightarrow m=17.$

       Hence we will  get the value $m=17.$

Answer 2

Given: 5 is subtracted from a number m is 12​.

We have to find the value of m.

We are solving in the following way:

• For this first, we will Identify the variables and constants in the given equation.
• And then we Simplify the equation in LHS and RHS.
• Then we will transpose or shift the term on the other side to solve the equation further simplest.
• After that, we will Simplify the equation using arithmetic operation as required that is mentioned in the above rule of the linear equations.
• Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation.

Now by using the transposition method:

From the given statement, we can write:

$\begin{array}{l}\Rightarrow m-5=12 \\\Rightarrow m=12+5 \\\Rightarrow m=17\end{array}$

Hence, the value of m will be$17$.
