The word “increased” indicates the symbol “ + ”.

The word “equals” indicates the symbol “=”

Let n represent number.

Rewrite the sentence into equation, \ \

$\"\"$

The equation is n + 91 = 37

$\"\"$

Subtraction property of equality: if a = b, then a $\"\"$ c = a $\"\"$ b.

n + 91 $\"\"$ 91 = 37 $\"\"$ 91 (Subtract 91 from both sides)

n = 37 $\"\"$ 91 (Additive inverse property: 91 $\"\"$ 91 = 0)

n = $\"\"$ 54 (Subtract: 37 $\"\"$ 91 = $\"\"$ 54)

$\"\"$

Check:

To check the solution, substitute n = $\"\"$ 54 in original equation.

n + 91 = 37 $\"\"$ $\"\"$ 54 + 91 = 37

37 = 37 (Add: $\"\"$ 54 + 91 = 37 )

Compare the values, the equation is true. The solution is n = $\"\"$ 54.

$\"\"$

The value of n = $\"\"$ 54.
