Identify Operation:
Identify the operation described in the sentence: "
271
271
271
reduced by
u
u
u
is the same as
15
15
15
." Here, 'reduced by' indicates subtraction.
Set Up Equation:
Set up the equation based on the operation. Since
271
271
271
is being reduced by
u
u
u
, the equation is
271
−
u
=
15
271 - u = 15
271
−
u
=
15
.
Solve for u:
Solve for u by isolating it on one side of the equation. Subtract
271
271
271
from both sides to get
−
u
=
15
−
271
-u = 15 - 271
−
u
=
15
−
271
.
Calculate Result:
Calculate
15
−
271
15 - 271
15
−
271
, which equals
−
256
-256
−
256
. So,
−
u
=
−
256
-u = -256
−
u
=
−
256
.
Find
u
u
u
:
To find
u
u
u
, multiply both sides by
−
1
-1
−
1
;
u
=
256
u = 256
u
=
256
.
