Question

if you subtract 8 from me then subtract 2 more, you get 5

Answer 1

Okay let us say I am a number x [Like Chemical X]
So if you subtract 8 from me that is x-8
And then subtract 2 from me again x -8 -2 you get 5
So writing this like Math -->
x -8-2 = 5
x-10=5
x - 10 + 10 = 5 + 10 [ADD 10 TO BOTH SIDES]
x = 15
Yayy! So I am 15!
You subtract 8 from me and get 7!
You subtract 2 more you get 5 [YIPPEE!]
Understood? :)
