Want to gain a basic understanding of algebra?

Looking for some simple algebra worksheets?

Do you need a bank of useful algebra resources?

Look no further! The pages you need are below!

Here is our selection of basic algebra sheets to try.

We have split the worksheets up into 3 different sections:

  • Generate the algebra - and write your own algebraic expressions;
  • Calculate the algebra - work out the value of different expressions;
  • Solve the algebra - find the value of the term in the equation.
  • Mixed questions involving all 3 of the above.

By splitting the algebra up into sections, you only need to concentrate on one aspect at a time!

Each question sheet comes with its own separate answer sheet.

Want to test yourself to see how well you have understood this skill?.

  • Try our NEW quick quiz at the bottom of this page.

What is an algebraic expression?

An expression is a mathematical statement where variables and operations are combined.

  • 2a + 5 is an expression involving the variable a
  • 5(y 2 - 6) is another expression

What is an algebraic equation?

An equation is where an algebraic expression is equal to something, which might be a number, or another algebraic expression.

  • 2a + 5 = 7 is an equation
  • 5(y 2 - 6) = 3y + 8 is another equation

How to Generate an Expression

When we are generating an expression, we are taking a rule and turning it into algebra.

  • Subtract 6 from n could be written as n - 6.
  • Multiply d by 4 could be written as d x 4 or 4d.
  • Add 5 to p and then double the result is written as (p + 5) x 2 or 2(p + 5)

How to Calculate an Expression

When we are calculating the value of an expression, we work out the value of the expression when we give a value to the variable.

  • p + 5 has a value of 11 when p = 6 because 6 + 5 = 11
  • 4 - q has a value of 1 ½ when q = 2 ½ because 4 - 2 ½ = 1 ½
  • 4(n - 2) has a value of 32 when n = 10 because 4 x (10 - 2) = 4 x 8 = 32
  • 4(n - 2) has a value of -8 when n = 0 because 4 x (0 - 2) = 4 x (-2) = -8

How to Solve a Simple Equation

When we are solving an equation, we are finding out the value(s) of the variable in the equation.

  • then p = 4 because 4 + 5 = 9
  • Answer: p = 4
  • then n = 56 ÷ 7 = 8
  • Answer: n = 8
  • means that f = 4 because 12 - 4 = 8
  • Answer: f = 4
  • then t = 5 because 0.6 x 5 = 3
  • Answer: t = 5
  • then r = 32 because ½ x 32 = 16
  • Answer: r = 32

Interactive Equality Explorer

This interactive equality explorer has been produced by PhET Interactive Simulations at the University of Colorado.

It is a useful tool for exploring different ideas including negative numbers and algebra equations and equality.

Probably the most useful part of the app is to use the 'Solve It' section once you are confident how it works.

You can then select your level of difficulty and start solving some algebraic equations by getting your variables onto one side of the equation and the numerical values on the other, and then multiplying or dividing the equation until you find the value of the required variable.

Grade 6 Math Word Problems: Tips, Tricks, and Answers - How do you estimate to solve word problems

Start practice on Sixth Grade here

Why are math word problems important for 6th-graders.

Math word problems are about more than just doing calculations. They are also about applying your math knowledge to real-world situations. Math word problems are important for 6 th graders because they help them to:

  • Learn how to use different math concepts and skills in various contexts
  • Develop their logical thinking and reasoning abilities
  • Enhance their communication and literacy skills
  • Prepare them for standardized tests and future math courses

Math word problems also make math more exciting and relevant. They show us how math can solve everyday problems and challenges. They also expose us to different topics and scenarios we may not encounter in our regular math lessons.

Strategies for solving Grade 6 math word problems

Solving Grade 6 math word problems can be intimidating, especially involving multiple steps or operations. But don't worry. Some general strategies will help your students confidently approach any word problem. Here are some of them:

  • Please encourage them to read the problem carefully and identify the given information, the unknowns, and the question.
  • They should rewrite the problem in their own words or summarize it in a sentence.
  • Let them choose a suitable method or strategy to solve the problem. Some standard methods are guessing and checking, making a table or chart, drawing a picture or diagram, using a formula or equation, working backward, or using logical reasoning.
  • They must show their work and explain each step clearly. Use appropriate units, labels, symbols, and terms.
  • Lastly, tell them to check their answer by plugging it back into the problem or using a different method. Ensure their answer makes sense and answers the question.

Breaking down complex word problems into manageable steps

Some word problems may seem too complex or confusing at first glance. They may have too much information, too many steps, or too many operations. In such cases, breaking down the problem into smaller and simpler parts is helpful. Here are some tips on how to do that:

Words like "difference," "subtract," "take away," or "minus" indicate s ubtraction .

Words like "product," "multiply," "times," or "of" indicate multiplication .

Words like "quotient," "divide," "per," or "out of" indicate division .

Words like "ratio," "fraction," "percent," or "part" indicate fractions or decimals .

Words like "equal," "same as," or "is" indicate equations .

Words like "more than,” “less than," "greater than," or "smaller than" indicate inequalities .

Words like "average," "mean," or "median" indicate statistics .

Words like "area," "perimeter," "volume," or "surface area" indicate geometry , etc.

  • Use parentheses, brackets, or other symbols to group the parts of the problem that belong together . For example, if the problem says:

You can rewrite it as:

  • (John has 12 apples) + (Mary has 8 apples) = (total number of apples) / (4 people) = (number of apples per person)

This way, you can see the structure of the problem more clearly and focus on one part at a time.

  • Solve each part of the problem separately and write down the intermediate results . For example, using the previous problem:
  • (John has 12 apples) + (Mary has 8 apples) = (total number of apples)
  • 12 + 8 = 20
  • (total number of apples) / (4 people) = (number of apples per person)

This way, you can keep track of your work and avoid making mistakes.

  • Combine the intermediate results to get the final answer. For example, using the previous problem :

This way, you can answer the question and check your answer.

Common types of grade 6 math word problems

There are many types of word problems that you may encounter in grade 6 math . Some of the most common ones found on Mathskills4kids.com are:

  • Ratio and proportion problems : These problems involve finding the relationship between two quantities with the same unit or measure. For example, if 12 pencils cost $3, how much do 20 pencils cost?
  • Percent problems : These problems involve finding the part, whole, or percent of a quantity. For example, if 30% of a class is boys, and there are 24 students, how many boys are there?
  • Fraction problems : These problems involve adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing fractions. For example, how much pizza do you have left if you have 2/3 of a pizza and eat 1/4?
  • Decimal problems : These problems involve adding, subtracting, multiplying, or dividing decimals. For example, if you buy a shirt for $12.50 and a pair of jeans for $24.75, how much change do you get from $50?
  • Measurement problems : These problems involve converting between different units of measurement or finding the perimeter, area, or volume of shapes. For example, if a rectangle has a length of 15 cm and a width of 10 cm, what is its area in square meters?
  • Algebra problems : These problems involve finding the value of an unknown variable or expression. For example, if x + 5 = 13, what is the value of x?

A step-by-step approach to solving different types of word problems

No matter what type of word problem your 6 th graders are faced with, they can use the following steps to solve it:

  • They should read the problem carefully and identify the given information and the question.
  • They must choose a variable to represent the unknown quantity and write an equation or expression that relates the given information and the question.
  • They can now solve the equation or expression and find the variable's value.
  • They can check their answer by plugging it back into the equation or expression to see if it makes sense.
  • They can now write their answer in complete sentences and include the appropriate units.

Using diagrams and models to solve math word problems

Sometimes, it can be helpful to use diagrams and models to visualize the problem and make it easier to solve. Some examples of diagrams and models for solving math word problems are:

  • Tape diagrams : These are horizontal or vertical bars showing the relationship between two quantities. For example, you can use a tape diagram to show how much money each person gets when $60 is shared equally among 4 people.
  • Number lines : These horizontal lines show numbers and their relative positions. For example, you can use a number line to show how to add or subtract fractions with different denominators.
  • Tables : These are grids that show data in rows and columns. For example, you can use a table to show how to find equivalent ratios or fractions.
  • Charts : These are graphical representations of data using bars, circles, lines, or other shapes. For example, you can use a chart to show how to find the percent of a quantity or compare different quantities.
  • Drawings : These are sketches or illustrations that show shapes or objects. For example, you can use a drawing to show how to find a shape's perimeter, area, or volume.

Providing answers and explanations to sample Mathskills4kids’ Grade 6 math word problems

Here are some sample Grade 6 math word problems with answers and explanations available at Mathskills4kids.com :

Answer : 6 cups of flour

Explanation : This is a ratio problem. We can use a tape diagram to show the relationship between flour and sugar.

Flour →|<---2 cups--->|<---2 cups--->|<---2 cups---> = 6

Sugar→|<---3 cups--->|<---3 cups--->|<---3 cups---> = 9

We can see that for every 3 cups of sugar, we need 2 cups of flour. So, for 9 cups of sugar, we need 6 cups of flour.

Answer : $15

Explanation : This is a percent problem. We can use a formula to find the sale price of the shirt.

Sale price = Original price - Discount

Discount = Percent off x Original price

We know the percent off is 40%, and the original price is $25. So, we can plug these values into the formula and solve for the sale price.

Discount = 40% x $25

Discount = 0.4 x $25

Discount = $10

Sale price = $25 - $10

Sale price = $15
