Author Topic: Math test  (Read 1327 times)

I'm doing a math test and I have no idea at all what this means, If you could tell me the answer and how you got it that'd be nice. BTW its Algebra.

       Carla set up tables and chairs for a party. There were 4 chairs at each table. Carla set up * tables. If * represents any number of tables, write an expression that represents the total number of chairs that Carla set up.
      
                                          

4x
Four times X.
(In algebra, an absence of the multiplication symbol is not necessary, as a letter next to a number represents multiplication)

Or just 4X, since a variable sitting next to a number means multiplying the two of them.

Basic algebra!

Brought to you by the blockland forums, the first place you should ask.
