Writing Equations

100

The sum of a number and 11 is 20

n + 11 = 20

200

The quotient of a number and 8 is equal to 76

n/8 = 76

300

9 less than 3 times a number is 21

3n - 9 = 21

400

4n/6 + 1 = -13

Example: The quotient of 4 times a number and 6 plus 1 is -13

500

12 times the sum of twice a number and 10 is that number squared

12(2n + 10) = n²

Solving Equations Easy

100

x + 12 = 20

x = 8

200

6x = 72

x = 12

300

x/-7 = 14

x = -98

400

7 - 4x = -33

x = 10 

500

x/9 - 14 = 1

x = 135

Solving Equations Hard

100

(x - 6)/3 = 20

x = 66

200

-8(2x + 11) + 53 = 13

x = -3

300

14 + 10x - 8 = 5(2x - 1) + 11

All Real Numbers

400

3(x + 4) = 7x - 4x + 11

No Solution

500

8x - 3(x - 5) - 9 = 3(x + 8)

x = 9

Literal Equations

100

ab = c , for b

b = c/a

200

x + y = 3z , for y

y = 3z - x

300

4x - 3y = 8 , for x

x = (8 + 3y)/4

400

ab/v = d , for v

v = ab/d

500

5c/ab = d , for a

a = 5c/bd

Proportions

100

4/5 = x/10

x = 8

200

11/43 = x/168

x = 43
