Not equal to
Sum
Difference
Product
Quotient
Write the following word statements using mathematical symbols:
The sum of 2 and 7
The difference between 7 and 6.
The product of 3 and 10
The quotient of 12 and 4
Five groups of six
Thirteen is not equal to eleven
4 is less than 10
8 is greater than 5
Write the following word statements using mathematical symbols:
Fifteen is equal to seven plus eight
Six is equal to sixteen minus ten
Eighty is equal to eight times ten
Five is equal to fifty divided by ten
Nineteen is greater than seven plus five
Write the following word statements using mathematical symbols:
The difference of 24 and 8, divided by 4
12 times the result of 10 reduced by 6
1 is equal to 12 divided by 3 minus 3
11 times 2 take away 9 is not equal to 10
15 is less than the quotient of 100 and 5
20 is greater than or equal to 2 groups of the sum of 3 and 6
Determine whether the following expressions match the statement "8 more than the quotient of 9 and 3":
\dfrac{8}{9} + 3
\dfrac{9}{3} - 8
\dfrac{9}{3} + 8
8 - \dfrac{9}{3}
Determine whether the following expressions match the statement "The product of 2 and 3 is subtracted from the sum of 10 and 12":
\left( 2 \times 3\right) - \left( 10 + 12 \right)
\left( 2 \times 3\right) + \left( 10 + 12 \right)
\left( 10 - 12 \right) + \left( 2 \times 3\right)
\left( 10 + 12 \right) - \left( 2 \times 3\right)
Determine whether the following equations match the statement "1 is 5 less than the quotient of 24 and 4":
1 = 5 - \dfrac{24}{4}
1 = \dfrac{24}{4} - 5
1 = \dfrac{24}{4} + 5
1 - \dfrac{24}{4} = 5
Determine whether the following equations match the statement "14 is equal to 7 groups of the difference between 10 and 8":
14 = 7 \times \left( 10 - 8 \right)
14 = 7 \times 10 - 8
14 = 7 + \left( 10 - 8 \right)
14 = 7 - \left( 10 - 8 \right)
Determine whether the following inequalities matches the statement "The product of 5 and 4 is less than 25":
5 \times 4 \lt 25
5 \times 4 \gt 25
5 \times 4 \leq 25
5 \times 4 \geq 25
Determine whether the following inequalities matches the statement "10 is greater than or equal to double the difference between 11 and 7":
10 \leq 2 \times \left( 11 - 7 \right)
10 \geq 2 \times 11 - 7
10 \leq 2 \times 11 - 7
10 \geq 2 \times \left( 11 - 7 \right)
Write the following expressions using word statements:
