Answer:

$\red\bigstar$ The Number that Reema thinks of is 28.

Given :-

Reema thinks of a number ‘x’ and on adding 29 to it, she gets 57.

To Find :-

1.To frame the Equation.

2.To solve it.

Solution

1.To frame the Equation.

Let us assume that the number is 'x'.

From the question it is said that on adding 29 to that number , she gets 57.

$\implies$ x + 29 = 57

∴ The Required Equation is → x + 29 = 57

2.To solve it.

x + 29 = 57

On trans - possing 29 to the right side it becomes -29 .

$\implies$ x = 57 - 29

$\implies$ x = 28.
