To re-state your question, you could say:
a number is equal to 83 minus 81. Is that correct? yup.
So, to make this look more like a math problem, lets put this in math notation:
83 - 81 = x
To isolate x...hmmm, x is already isolated (all by itself on one side of the equation)! Okay then, we just solve the other side of the equation, 83 - 81 and that equals 2. So, placing the 2 on the side of the equation, you have 2 = x. Ta Da! problem solved! SUPER!
