Q. Chas and Tyler have been collecting video games. Chas has

25

video games, and Tyler has

m

video games. Together they have a total of

65

video games.

\newline

Write an equation to describe this situation.

Define Variables: Let's denote the number of video games Tyler has as $m$ . According to the problem, Chas has $25$ video games. Together, they have a total of $65$ video games. We can express this relationship with an equation where the sum of Chas's video games and Tyler's video games equals $65$ . $\newline$ Calculation: $25$ (Chas's video games) + $m$ (Tyler's video games) = $65$ (Total video games)
Equation Representation: Now, we can write the equation that represents the total number of video games they have together. $\newline$ Equation: $25 + m = 65$
