Balance Shapes - Simple Ratio - To Equations (Level 2)

This math topic is designed to help students understand and form algebraic equations from visual balance situations using simple ratios. The focus is on translating the relationship between various weights on balanced beams into algebraic expressions. Each question presents a different balance beam scenario with potential equations, and students must determine which equation correctly represents the balance depicted in the image. This exercise is part of an introductory course on basic algebra concepts.
