Question

A biologist is recording the loss of fish in a pond. She notes the number of fish, f, in the pond on June 1. On July 1 there were 63 fish in the pond, which is 52 fewer fish that were in the pond on June 1. Which equation represents this situation?
A. f - 52 = 63
B. f - 63 = 52
C. 63 - f = 52
D. f - 63 = -52

Answer 1

Answer 3

The third sentence restated: 63 is 52 fewer than f.
which means it is f-52.
so, 63 = f - 52
That's the same as f - 52 = 63.
