Answer 2

The complete question is :

The total height of the Statue of Liberty and its pedestal is 305 feet. This is 153 more than the height of the statue. Write and solve an equation to find the height h (in feet) of the statue.

Question says 153, so we add 153 with the height of the statue

The total height of the Statue of Liberty = Height of the statue + 153

305 = h + 153

To find out h we subtract 153 on both sides

305 - 153 = h + 153 - 153

h = 152

The height of the statue = 152 ft
