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

This math topic involves analyzing balance beams to form equations, focusing on basic algebraic concepts. It challenges students to interpret and represent the physical balances in equations, using substitution. Each question presents a different set of balance beams and offers multiple-choice answers in LaTeX-rendered equation format. Through these exercises, learners develop skills in translating visual information (balance beams) into algebraic expressions, enhancing their understanding of variables and algebraic manipulation.
