Some examples of Verbal expressions are: Addition The sum of a number and seven = x+7 6 more than a numer = x+6 3 plus a number = 3+x 24 added to a number = x+24 A number increased by 5 = x+5 The sum of two numbers = x+y Subtraction 2 less than a number = x-2 12 minus a number = 12-x A number decreased by 12 = x-12 A number subtracted from 10 = 10-x The difference between two numbers = x-y Multiplication 16 times a number = 16x A number multiplied by 6 = 6x 2/3 of a number (used with fractions and percents.) = 2/3x Twice (2 times) a number = 2x The product of two numbers = xy Division The quotient of 8 and a number = 8/x (x less than or equal to zero) A number divided by 13 = x/13 The ratio of two numbers or the quotient of 2 numbers. x/y ( y is less than or euqal to zero.)
Some examples of Verbal expressions are:
ReplyDeleteAddition
The sum of a number and seven = x+7
6 more than a numer = x+6
3 plus a number = 3+x
24 added to a number = x+24
A number increased by 5 = x+5
The sum of two numbers = x+y
Subtraction
2 less than a number = x-2
12 minus a number = 12-x
A number decreased by 12 = x-12
A number subtracted from 10 = 10-x
The difference between two numbers = x-y
Multiplication
16 times a number = 16x
A number multiplied by 6 = 6x
2/3 of a number (used with fractions and percents.) = 2/3x
Twice (2 times) a number = 2x
The product of two numbers = xy
Division
The quotient of 8 and a number = 8/x (x less than or equal to zero)
A number divided by 13 = x/13
The ratio of two numbers or the quotient of 2 numbers. x/y ( y is less than or euqal to zero.)
