What value of k makes this addition sentence true?

Question

Hint: Use properties of addition.

67 + 487 = k + 67

k =

Answer 1

To solve for \( k \) in the equation \( 67 + 487 = k + 67 \), we can use properties of addition.

First, we can simplify the left side:

\[ 67 + 487 = 554 \]

Now we have:

\[ 554 = k + 67 \]

To isolate \( k \), we can subtract \( 67 \) from both sides:

\[ k = 554 - 67 \]

Now we need to perform the subtraction:

\[ 554 - 67 = 487 \]

Therefore, the value of \( k \) that makes the addition sentence true is:

\[ \boxed{487} \]
