If we are talking about the algebraic expressions, then an expression can be simplified or be evaluated for specific values of its variables, while an equation need to be solved, in other words to find the values of the variables that make the equation a true statement.
If we are solving an equation, then we can work in the same way that we can simplify an expression (since an equation is a statement that states that two expressions are equal), or factoring an expression.

What is the best way to solve the equation square root of x - m?
Without an equality sign the given expression can't be considered to be an equation.
How do you solve an equation with a variable that is a fraction?
You solve the equation the same way as you would any other equation. Whether the variable is a fraction or otherwise will only become clear once you solve the equation. In other words, you don't initially KNOW whether the solution will be a fraction or not.
How would you prove that an inequality does have the same solution that an equation would have?
If you're given the inequality and the equation, then the way to prove that they have the same solution is to solve each one and show that the solutions are the same number. Don't strain yourself, though. An inequality and an equation never have the same solution.
Which is the best way to solve the equation x2 equals n?
Take the square root of both sides of the equation
Does a math expression have an equal sign?
no. an equation such as 5n = 6 has an equal sign however an expression such as 5n does not have an equal sign. it is called an expression because it is another way to EXPRESS 6
