Choose the equation you can use to solve the following problem.
How many meatballs does Raul still need to make if he already has 25 and needs a total of 32 for Sunday's dinner?
Is it 25-7=b?
I got that answer because 32-25=7
But last guess......Is it 32-25=b?
i need help with the whole thing
i will come back to answer the question after i'm done with the test
To solve this problem, we need to calculate how many meatballs Raul still needs to make.
First, we can start by setting up an equation based on the given information. Let's call the unknown number of meatballs Raul still needs "x". We know that Raul already has 25 meatballs, and he needs a total of 32 for Sunday's dinner. Therefore, we can write the equation:
25 + x = 32
Now, to solve for "x", we need to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by subtracting 25 from both sides:
25 + x - 25 = 32 - 25
x = 7
So, Raul still needs to make 7 meatballs for Sunday's dinner.
Therefore, the correct equation to use for this problem is:
25 + x = 32
or
x = 32 - 25
