Complete the Equation: Finding the Missing Value in 1000 + □ = 1010

Question

Complete the following equation:

1000+=1010 1000+\Box=1010

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to determine the missing number in the equation 1000+=1010 1000 + \Box = 1010 . To find this missing number, we will convert the addition problem into a subtraction problem:

Step 1: We have the equation:

  • 1000+=1010 1000 + \Box = 1010

Step 2: To find \Box, we can rearrange the equation by subtracting 1000 from 1010:

  • =10101000\Box = 1010 - 1000

Step 3: Perform the subtraction:

  • 10101000=10 1010 - 1000 = 10

Therefore, the missing number is =10 \Box = 10 .

Thus, the solution to the problem is =10 \Box = 10 . Among the provided answer choices, this corresponds to choice 2.
