Question

Ashok thought of a number. He added 73 to it and then subtracted 29 from the sum. He got 127 as the result. What was the number Ashok thought of at first?

Answer 1

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

let that number be x

x + 73 - 29 = 127

x = 127 + 29 -73

x = 156 - 73

x = 83

So 83 was that number Ashok thought of.
