The difference between a number and 12 is 20

write an equation

20 - 12 = x
combine like terms, theres ur answer

Okay so we know difference means to subtract, and we know by saying "a number" they mean the value is unknown. Since idk if you have to use a specific variable for this problem, I'll use n as an example. So it's basically saying we're subtracting 12 from an unknown number and that it'll equal 20. So the equation would be n-12=20.
