Equation from Sentence - Addition and Subtraction (Level 1)

This math topic focuses on forming algebraic equations from sentences involving basic addition and subtraction. Problems require translating verbal statements into equations. Each question presents a sentence that describes a mathematical relationship (e.g., one number is the sum or difference of others), followed by multiple choices to select the correct equation representation. The skills practiced primarily include understanding and setting up equations and the basic operations of addition and subtraction in the context of algebraic expressions.
