6 friends each want an equal serving of 36 cups of pudding. How many cups does each person get?
1. What is the problem asking you to find out? (how many cups each person gets)
2. Take the numbers you have and think: What would the problem be without the words? (36...divided by...6...EQUALS)
3. There you have it-- a word problem turned into an equation!
There was no word problem, so it would be a null equation.

You will need to use your brain to figure that out. Different word problems need different equations.
Answer A Formula is when you have to write an equation that tells you how to answer that problem/question but the opposite would be the actual answer.

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.
The solution to a math problem involving a quadratic equation is the values of the variable that make the equation true, typically found using the quadratic formula or factoring.

It is the solution or sometimes solutions when an equation or a problem has been solved.
Without an equality sign the given expression can't be considered to be an equation
