Which equation will solve the following word problem? Lake County had 154,226 residents. 14% of the residents moved away. How many people now reside in Lake County?

154,226 + (154,226 * 0.14) = x

154,226 + (154,226 * 104) = x

154,226 - (154,226 * 104) = x

154,226 - (154,226 * 0.14) = x

    154,226 - (154,226 * 104) = x

    Step-by-step explanation:

    for this we have to think that the people who moved left, so they have to subtract

    lake residents are 154,226

    then we would have to subtract those who moved

    that we calculate them as 14% of residents

    0.14*154,226

    then we finally have

    154,226 - (154,226 * 104) = x
