In an addition sum, if the missing number is the first number, for example, x + 5 = 10, then to find x, perform the sum 10 - 5, producing the solution x = 5.

In a subtraction sum, if the missing number is the second number, for example, 7 - y = 4, then to find y, perform the sum 7 - 4 = 3, production the solution y = 3.
