Annie have 56 stamps that are 26 less than one half of my stamps how many stamps do i have?​

Sagot :

Answer:

You have 164 stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of my stamps be 'x'

Half of x subtracted by 26 = 56

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x[/tex] - 26 = 56

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x[/tex] = 56 + 26 =  82

[tex]x[/tex] = 82 x 2 =  164

Let's check

[tex]\frac{164}{2}[/tex] - 26 = 56

[tex]\frac{164}{2}[/tex] = 56 + 26

164     = 82 x 2

164 = 164!

The answer is correct.
