Question

What should be added to 38.5 to get 50?

Answer 1

Answer:

Number = 11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the

Number added to 38.5 to get 50 be x

38.5 + x = 50

x = 50 - 38.5

x = 11.5

Proof :

38.5 + x

38.5 + 11.5 = 50

Answer 2

• We have to evaluate the above expression by using the given data.

              Given data:-$x+38.5=50.$

              To find:- Value of the expression.

              Solution:-

• Let assume x to find the missing term.

• Then the result will be the solution for the given linear equation.

• By using the transposition method.

         we get,

         $x+38.5=50\\=>x=50-38.5\\=>x=11.5$

      Hence we will get $11.5+38.5=50.$
