Although equations might initially look like a difficult subject, they are really only riddles that need to be solved! Let's explore the fascinating realm of equations, where mathematical magic is created by combining letters and numbers. How Do You Interpret an Equation? A mathematical assertion that two expressions are equal is called an equation. Variables, constants, and mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division are frequently included. Types of Equations: One-Step Equations: These are equations that can be solved in one step. For example: 3x=15 (Solution: x=5) Two-Step Equations : These require two steps to solve. For example: 2y+8=14 First, subtract 8 from both sides:  2y=6 Then, divide by 2:  y=3 Multi-Step Equations: These involve more than two steps. For example: 4z−7=5z+3 Move all the z terms to one side:  4z−5z=3+7 Simplify:  −z=10 Multiply by -1 to solve for  z=−10 Solving Equations: Isolate the Variable: The goal is to get the v
