Subtraction equations - 5 digit

An equation is a mathematical statement such that the expression on the left side of the equals sign (=) has the same value as the expression on the right side. An example of an equation is 60000 - 40000 = 20000.

One of the terms in an equation may not be know and needs to be determined. Often this unknown term is represented by a letter such as x. (e.g. x - 40000 = 20000).

The solution of an equation is finding the value of the unknown x. To find the value of x we can use the additive equation property which says: The two sides of an equation remain equal if the same number is added to each side.

Example:
x - 50000 = 70000
x - 50000 + 50000 = 70000 + 50000
x - 0 = 120000
x = 120000
Check the answer by substituting the value of x (120000) back into the equation.
120000 - 50000 = 70000
