solvin' algebratic expressions-IS FUN!

Happy Halloween!


Hello fello bloggerites!










Im gonna teach you how to do algebratic expressions! YAY! ok i got some food so now im PUMPED! Ok im gettin off topic.










Some things you have to know:





1.)The letter in the equasion {x+7=11} is called the varyable





how to do it with addition :










1.) you start with an EASY problem like this: 7+x=11





2.)you find the smallest number: 7 then you put it under both whole numbers with a - in this case: 7+x=11





-7 -7





3.) you see 7-7 cancels out so you have to do 11-7=4





4.) now you've got your answer! x=4










How to do it with subtraction:





1.) you start with ANOTHER EASY easy problem: 6-x=10





2.) you find the smallest whole number AGAIN: 6 than you put the numbers under the numbers with a - in this case: 6-x=10





-6 -6





3.) 6-6 cancels out so you bhave to do 10-6=4





4.) now youve got youre answer x=4










You think thats easy? well it gets harder- but not MUCH harder! [evil laugh] hahahahahahahahahah


Now we're gonna do it with DIVISON and MULTIPLICATION


first multiplication:


1.) first you've got a problem like this 7xp=14

2.) next you find the smallest whole number wich is 7 so you put it under each number 7xp=14

/7 /7

3.) since 7/7 cancels out you have to do 7/14=2

4.) Your Answer! p=2


Now... last but not least... DIVISION!!!!!!


1.) you have a problem like this: 2/p=4

2.)next you find the smallest whole number wich is 2 than you put it on each side with a / sign 2/ 2/p=4 /2

3.) 2x2 cancels out so you have to do 2/4=2

4.) the answer is p=2


WERE DONE RIGHT!- WRONG


A way we could use this in real life is as a banker .




wooh now im DONE -yay.


goodbye- peace out! %-) oh yea

Great job! Your post made me laugh. :) Thank you for your effort in your explanations. You chose some examples that contained twists I haven't taught you yet (variables on the bottom of the fraction, subtracting the variable) and thus got some wrong answers. I want to make sure that you understand that you don't just always use the smallest number. You need to get rid of the number with the variable in order to get the variable by itself, so you use the number that is with the variable.
