Question

Express the following statement in the form of equations and solve: When 15 is added to Megha's age the sum is equal to 35

Answer 1

Consider Megha's age as X

15 + X = 35

X = 35 - 15

X = 20

Answer 2

Answer :

Equation = X + 15 = 35

X = 20



Explanation -

Let Megha's age = x

Add 15 = x + 15

According to the given question -

X + 15 = 35

X = 35 - 15

X = 20


Hence :

Megha's age is 20 years.
