Which equation can be used to find the number of fish in the pond on June 1?

A biologist is recording the loss of fish in a pond. He notes the number of fish, f, in the pond on June 1. On July 1 there were 63 fish in the pond, which is 52 fewer fish than were in the pond on June 1. What is the number of fish in the pond on June 1?



63−f=52


f−63=−52


f−52=63


f−52=−63

Answer: The required equation is [tex]f-52=63[/tex] and the number of fishes in the pond on June 1 = 115


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The number of fishes in pond on July 1 = 63

Also, it is said that the number of fishes in pond on July 1 is 52 fewer(lesser) than the number of fishes in pond on June 1.

Let f be the number of fishes in pounds on June 1.

then the required equation will be

[tex]f-52=63[/tex]

Now, add 52 on both the sides  of the equation, we get

[tex]f=63+52\\\Rightarrow\ f=115[/tex]
