a student says that the solution of 375=x-28 is 347. I have to find the error which I tried to I worked it out 6 times and got the same answer I also have to explain why its wrong plz help **im not asking for the answer just for help**

Answer 1

If I'm remembering algebra right, you need to isolate x <~~right?

So if you add 28 to both sides, what happens? (And why add, instead of subtract?)

Answer 2

then what do I do from there

Answer 3

I got both answers 403 and 375
do I subtract 375 from 403?

Answer 4

What is 375+28?

x = that total

Answer 5
