Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this you have to work backwards with what you are given.
16-7=9
Then we know that a number has to be multiplied by itself to equal nine the only number that follows that criteria is 3
3*3=9+7=16
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
Work backwards. 16 Subtract 7. Take square root. We take the square root because that is how to undo a number that was multiplied by itself.
16-7=9 √(9)=3
Check this by going through the same steps listed in the question:
A positive number is multiplied by itself. then 7 is added. the answer is 16
3×3=9
9+7=16
