One Step Equations and Word Problems

7 + g = 11

• g = 4

• g = -4

• g = 18

• g = -18

Answer explanation

To solve for g, subtract 7 from both sides of the equation: 7 + g - 7 = 11 - 7, which simplifies to g = 4. Therefore, the correct answer is g = 4.

To solve a - 4 = 35 you would ...

• subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.

• add 4 to both sides of the equation.

• add a to both sides of the equation.

• hope for the best.

Answer explanation

To solve n + 23 = 65 you would...

• add 23 to both sides of the equation.

• add 65 to both sides of the equation.

• subtract 65 from both sides of the equation.

• subtract 23 from both sides of the equation.

Answer explanation

To solve n + 23 = 65, you would subtract 23 from both sides of the equation to isolate the variable n and find its value.

To solve 9x=153 you would...

• multiply by 9 on both sides

• divide by 9 on both sides

• add 9 to both sides

• subtract 9 from both sides

Answer explanation

To solve 9x=153, you would divide by 9 on both sides to isolate x. This will give you x=17, as 153 ÷ 9 = 17.

y - 33 = 147

• y = 114

• y = 177

• y = 180

• Answer not Given

Answer explanation

To solve for y, add 33 to both sides of the equation. This gives y = 147 + 33 = 180. Therefore, the correct answer is y = 180.

Solve the equation:
4p = 16

• p = 12

• p = -12

• p = -4

• p = 4

Answer explanation

The equation is solved by dividing both sides by 4, giving p = 4 as the correct answer.

Solve for x:

• x = 20

• x = 7

• x = 10

• x = 3

144=12z

• z=20

• z=11

• z=12

Answer explanation

To solve for z, divide both sides by 12: 144/12 = 12z/12. This simplifies to z = 12, so the correct answer is z=12.

Solve the equation:
20.5 = x + 4

• 16.5

• 16.05

• 24.5

• 24.05

Answer explanation

To solve for x, subtract 4 from both sides: x = 20.5 - 4 = 16.5. Therefore, the correct answer is 16.5.
