Given:

-13 plus what will equal 11

Solution:

The given can be represented as,

-13 + x = 11

In order to find the missing number, we simply need to find for x. To do so we  transpose -13 to the other side of the equation, hence it must be taken to note that in transposing a number, the sign changes.

-13 + x = 11

x = 11 + 13

x = 24

FInal answer:
x = 24
