Oliver runs for 7 more minutes than Bobby.

Question

The equation v = 7 + b, where v represents the number of minutes Oliver runs, and b represents the number of minutes Bobby runs, shows this relationship.

If Oliver runs 32 minutes, how many minutes does Bobby run?

Answer 1

If Oliver runs 32 minutes, we can use the equation v = 7 + b to find how many minutes Bobby runs.

32 = 7 + b
Subtracting 7 from both sides, we get:
32 - 7 = b
25 = b

Therefore, Bobby runs for 25 minutes.
