To solve the equation \( (237 + x) - 583 = 149 \), follow these steps:
Start by simplifying the left side: \[ 237 + x - 583 = 149 \] Combine the constants: \[ (237 - 583) + x = 149 \] This results in: \[ -346 + x = 149 \]
Now, isolate \( x \) by adding 346 to both sides: \[ x = 149 + 346 \] Simplifying the right side gives: \[ x = 495 \]
Therefore, the solution is \( x = 495 \).
