Lizzie used a gift card to buy $67 worth of groceries. Now she has $19 left. Write an equation to represent this situation.
67 - g= 19 OR 19 + g = 67

Write an equation to represent this situation.
Shannon drove 420 miles and used 15 gallons of gasoline. How many miles did Shannon's car travel per gallon of gasoline?
Remember: The variable CANNOT be alone on one side of the equation.
15x = 420
or
420/x = 15
100 = 56 + x
x = 44
x - 64=28

On some days, Mrs. Baker commutes 3.5 hours per day to the city for business meetings. Last week, she commuted for a total of 14 hours. Write an equation to find how many days she commuted last week.
3.5d = 14
or
14/d = 3.5

Write an equation to solve this situation.
Kim bought a poster that cost $8.95 and some colored pencils. The total cost was $21.35.
Remember: Your equation CANNOT have the variable by itself on one side of the equal sign.
$8.95 + c = $21.35
or
$21.35 - c = $8.95
