Identify Operation: Identify the math operation and rearrange the sentence.The sentence says "308 equals c less than 193". This means we subtract c from 193 to get 308. So, the equation is 193−c=308.
Solve for c: Solve for c.To isolate c, we subtract 193 from both sides of the equation:193−c=308−c=308−193−c=115Now, to solve for c, we multiply both sides by −1:c=−115
