    difference means subtraction, is means equals, and less than the number is subtraction. so...
x-7=45-x
2x= 52 (solve for number)
x=26 (divide by two)
you can use any variable you choose, as long as the left and right part of the equation has the same variable

    n - 7 = 45 - n
2n = 52
n = 26
    
2n = 52
n = 26
