Hi, lets call the number x so in this case X - 26 = 18 The simple form is to add inverse numbers to each side to make it easier. This means that we take one of the numbers and add it to both sides as a negative. In this instance we'll use -26. At the moment it's negative so we'll add a positive to each side. I have made bold the two inverse numbers I have added. X -26 + 26 = 18 + 26 So on the left side we have -26 + 26 = 0 so we can simplify it to X - 0, or just X On the right hand side we have 18 + 26 = 44 so we have the answer X = 44 44 - 26 = 18
