Write the word sentence as an equation. Then solve.

10 more than a number c is 3.

10 +c=3

C=3-10

C=-7

c = -7

10 more than a number c is 3

the variable is c, according to the sentence.

c

"10 more than a number c"

c + 10

"10 more than a number c is 3 "

c + 10 = 3

now that you have your equation, time to solve it.

it's important to know that if you do something to an equation, as long as you do it to both sides the equation is still true.

for example.

2 + 2 = 4

if you add 1 to both sides of the equation,

2 + 2 + 1 = 4 + 1

5 = 5

this is still true.

c + 10 = 3

subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

c + 10 - 10 = 3 - 10

c = 3 - 10

c = -7
