Which is correct?

6 - 4 = 1 + 2
7 - 3 = 3 + 2
5 + 3 = 2 + 7
3 + 2 = 8 - 3

1 answer

Let's evaluate each equation:

  1. \( 6 - 4 = 1 + 2 \)

    • Left side: \( 6 - 4 = 2 \)
    • Right side: \( 1 + 2 = 3 \)
    • Result: \( 2 \neq 3 \) (not correct)

  2. \( 7 - 3 = 3 + 2 \)

    • Left side: \( 7 - 3 = 4 \)
    • Right side: \( 3 + 2 = 5 \)
    • Result: \( 4 \neq 5 \) (not correct)

  3. \( 5 + 3 = 2 + 7 \)

    • Left side: \( 5 + 3 = 8 \)
    • Right side: \( 2 + 7 = 9 \)
    • Result: \( 8 \neq 9 \) (not correct)

  4. \( 3 + 2 = 8 - 3 \)

    • Left side: \( 3 + 2 = 5 \)
    • Right side: \( 8 - 3 = 5 \)
    • Result: \( 5 = 5 \) (correct)

The only correct equation is: \( 3 + 2 = 8 - 3 \).
