Ashton broke apart a number into 30+7 what number did he start with?

I bet it is below 38 and above 36

What is 30 plus 7?

7x4

37

To find the number that Ashton started with, we need to reverse the process. Ashton broke apart a number into 30+7.

To get the original number, we need to subtract 30 from the result he got.

So, to find the original number, we calculate:
Original number = (30+7) - 30

The addition of 30+7 gives us 37.
Subtracting 30 from 37, we get the original number:
Original number = 37 - 30 = 7

Therefore, Ashton started with the number 7.
