Answer :

To solve the equation given in the question, we start by interpreting the statement: 'the total of 118 and v is equal to 232' as a mathematical equation.

This can be expressed as:

[tex]118 + v = 232[/tex]

Our task is to solve for [tex]v[/tex]. To do this, we need to isolate [tex]v[/tex] on one side of the equation.

Here are the steps:

  1. Start with the equation:
    [tex]118 + v = 232[/tex]

  2. Subtract 118 from both sides to isolate [tex]v[/tex]:
    [tex]v = 232 - 118[/tex]

  3. Perform the subtraction:
    [tex]v = 114[/tex]

Therefore, the value of [tex]v[/tex] is 114.

This tells us that when you add 118 and 114 together, you will get 232, which is consistent with the information provided in the problem statement.
