At their going-out-of-business sale, Bill's Bikes sold 43 bikes and had 56 left. Which equation could be used to find x, the number of bikes the store had originally?

If Bill's Bikes sold 43 and still had 56, that would mean they used to have 43+56 so x=43+56. All you need to do is add 43 and 56, and you'll get x.

How about adding the two numbers to get the original number of bikes? I guess so becoz they sold 43 and were left with 56 so if we add the two then we get x.😊😎
