I don't understand the question

CharlieWork · 29/01/2019 20:00

There is more to that equation, what is the rest of it?

Sugarhunnyicedtea · 29/01/2019 20:00

7/w
Is that the whole question??

Iloveautumnleaves · 29/01/2019 20:00

Can you screenshot the actual question?

TheFallenMadonna · 29/01/2019 20:01

If it is just that, in words, then they are probably looking for 7/w.

Purpleartichoke · 29/01/2019 20:02

Am I the only person refreshing because I want to know the actual question?

TheFallenMadonna · 29/01/2019 20:03

Are there other questions like "3 less than a?"

TeenTimesTwo · 29/01/2019 20:03

^^ What they all said. Please give the whole question exactly as asked.

Sugarhunnyicedtea · 29/01/2019 20:03

Purpleartichoke Haha, no, me too

Huggingslothsallday · 29/01/2019 20:03

Purpleartichoke nope me too!

MischiefandMayhem · 29/01/2019 20:04

Maybe it's 7/2? As W is below the 2 on a keyboard? In which case it's 3.5... but that doesn't seem like it would be the question either surely?! Hmm

TeenTimesTwo · 29/01/2019 20:05

Madonna You could have it.

7 divided by w = 7/w
3 less than a = a-3
s multiplied by itself = s^2

The whole equation would make sense....

Sugarhunnyicedtea · 29/01/2019 20:06

It's 7/w

legofansmum · 29/01/2019 20:07

Hope this adds link

Yep. 7/w. The / is used instead of ÷ .

Sugarhunnyicedtea · 29/01/2019 20:07

I assume you've done the rest? It's the same principle as all the others

dementedpixie · 29/01/2019 20:08

Wray did you put for question 3 as its the same sort of question ?
7/W

MischiefandMayhem · 29/01/2019 20:08

7/w, the same way B3 is b/3

legofansmum · 29/01/2019 20:08

It’s DS’s

Thanks
He’s done the others ok but that one seemed to puzzle him.

So
b1) = 3t
b2) = 5g
b3) = b/3
b4) = 7/w
b5) = mn
b6) = pq

y7 maths? Just beginning to understand how algebra works.

Everytimeref · 29/01/2019 20:10

It means it's written like a fraction so 7/w.

legofansmum · 29/01/2019 20:11

Thanks for the explanations. Yes Year 7 Maths . It’s been a long time since I did Algebra and I was always more into the Arts!
