375-(x-218)=123

To solve the equation \( 375 - (x - 218) = 123 \), you can follow these steps:

1. Distribute the negative sign: \[ 375 - x + 218 = 123 \]

2. Combine like terms: \[ 593 - x = 123 \]

3. Subtract 593 from both sides: \[ -x = 123 - 593 \] \[ -x = -470 \]

4. Multiply both sides by -1 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = 470 \]

So, the solution is: \[ x = 470 \]
