To solve the equation 653 = x - 243, we need to isolate the variable x by undoing the subtraction of 243 from x.
To do this, we will perform the opposite operation, which is addition. Add 243 to both sides of the equation:
653 + 243 = x - 243 + 243
896 = x
Therefore, the solution to the equation is x = 896.
