My students had the hardest time understanding that a math problem involved letters. It was interesting to see how they handled problems in the past with question marks and were ok.. put a letter there and that made it 10 times more confusing. Once they understood that they had done similar work before they did were more comfortable.

Then you have fractions.

THEN you have both sides of the = to deal with.

It is an ongoing experience from comfortable to uncomfortable with the subject.
