Question

which of this numbers should go inside the box to make the equation true blank plus 4 over 2 equals 10

Answer 1

Given:

The expression is

$\dfrac{\_\_\_+4}{2}=10$

To find:

The number of the blank.

Solution:

Let x be the missing number for the blank. Then,

$\dfrac{x+4}{2}=10$

Multiply both sides by 2.

$x+4=20$

Subtract 4 from both sides.

$x=20-4$

$x=16$

Therefore, the missing number for the blank is 16.
