simple variable equations. it sounds hard but it isnt. its just adding and multiplying numbers to make an equation true.
you add in variables... the most common variable used is X
a variable can represent any number desired
an example of a variable equation is... x + 5 = 15
to solve it you minus 5 from both sides. this will give you only X on one side and only a number on the other side...
the answer is X = 10
put X back into your equation... (10) + 5 = 15
if this answer is correct then you did it correctly... and obviously 10 plus 5 is 15

Pre-Algebra is a class that allows you to practice basic algebraic functions and provides a second year to learn the skills.
Since "pre-" means before, then pre-algebra would be before algebra. Conversely, algebra would be after pre-algebra. Generally, the next class after a pre-algebra class would be Algebra I, followed by Algebra II.
Pre-algebra preps you for algebra.2nd answer:Pre-AP-algebra is the same as Algebra I. Both are way harder than pre- algebra.
Algebra 1 half is easier than pre-algebra. Although students in school might learn the same concepts, Pre- Algebra covers everything faster. Maybe even the whole book (more than 696 pages) in 1 school year. Algebra 1 half covers about half of the book in one school year.
No. Pre-Algebra is taught to provide the ability to do certain mathematical equations before doing the more challenging math of Algebra I.
