In 2010 there were 98 thousand us troops in iraq. this is 23 thousand more than half the number of us trrops in iraq in 2003 find the number of us trrops in iraq in 2003

The easiest way of determining the number of U.S troops in Iraq is:

98 thousand troops (2010) - 23 thousand = 75 thousand troops (half)

What's left to do is multiply 75 thousand by 2, and you get the number of U.S troops in Iraq.

75 thousand x 2 = 150 thousand troops.

There were a total of 150 thousand US troops in Iraq in 2003
