Check the final answer first, then review the worked steps.

Problem

Solve for v: 264 - v = 101.

Answer

\(v = 163\)

Step-by-step solution

  1. Start with the equation 264 - v = 101.
  2. Subtract 264 from both sides: 264 - v - 264 = 101 - 264.
  3. Simplify both sides to get -v = -163.
  4. Multiply both sides by -1, so v = 163.
  5. Check the answer: 264 - 163 = 101.
