To solve the equation \( 678 - 378 - x = 50 \), follow these steps:
Combine like terms on the left side: \[ 678 - 378 = 300 \] So, the equation becomes: \[ 300 - x = 50 \]
Next, isolate \( x \) by subtracting 300 from both sides: \[ -x = 50 - 300 \] \[ -x = -250 \]
Multiply both sides by -1 to solve for \( x \): \[ x = 250 \]
Thus, the solution is \( x = 250 \).
