I usually just read the word equation, pick out the important parts, and swap the words for numbers or symbols. For example, if it says “speed equals distance divided by time,” I write it as **Speed = Distance ÷ Time**. Then I plug in the numbers, like if a car goes 120 km in 2 hours, I can quickly work out the speed is 60 km/h. It’s really just turning words into math you can solve.
