Replace the ? with one of the following symbols (<, >, =, or ≠) for 4 + 3 + 7 ? 7 + 0 + 7

Solution:

In this equation 4 + 3 + 7 ? 7 + 0 + 7

There are two sides to the equation. We have two mathematical expressions on either side. We need to check for equalities or inequalities after evaluating the expressions.

Let us simplify both sides of the equation,

4 + 3 + 7  = 14 ---->LHS

7 + 0 + 7 =14  ---->RHS

LHS  ?  RHS

14 ? 14

14 = 14

Since the values on LHS and RHS are equal, the symbol that is to be used is =.

Therefore, we will use the ‘equal to’ symbol.

Replace the ? with one of the following symbols (<, >, =, or ≠) for 4 + 3 + 7 ? 7 + 0 + 7

Summary:

The symbol ? is replaced with =. The equation is 4 + 3 + 7 = 7 + 0 + 7.
