[] Explanation []
Problem 1: 234 + (Y + 749) = 3091
Remove Parenthesis:
234 + Y + 749 = 3091
Group Like terms:
Y + 234 + 749 = 3091
Add The Numbers: 234 + 749 = 983
Y + 983 = 3091
Subtract 983 From Both Sides:
Y + 983 - 983 = 3091 - 983
Simplify:
Y = 2108

Problem 2: 8405 + (347 + X) = 8995
Remove Parenthesis:
8405 + 347 + X = 8995
Add Numbers: 8405 + 347 = 8752
X + 8752 = 8995
Subtract 8752 From Both Sides:
X + 8752 - 8752 = 8995 - 8752
Simplify:
X = 243
