simply put, an expression has no "equal to" sign (=). and equation has the "equal" to sign and and inequality has either one of these signs <, >
5k 7 3k is a string of terms: it is not an equation (or inequality) and so cannot have an answer. It is not even an expression since there are no operators between the three terms.5k 7 3k is a string of terms: it is not an equation (or inequality) and so cannot have an answer.

In an equation, what is to the left of the equals sign equals what is to the right. In an inequality, the left side is either less than, greater than, less than or equal to, or greater than or equal to the right side.
