What to Focus On

  • Aftab's age is 3 less than Shabnam's age.
  • Letters used to represent numbers are called letter-numbers.

  • Swapping terms does not change the value of an expression.
  • Grouping terms in a convenient way does not change the value of an expression.
  • Brackets help show order clearly.

  • The multiplication sign is omitted in algebraic expressions.
  • The number is written before the letter.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
