Understanding Simple Equations:

An equation is a mathematical statement that shows two expressions are equal. In simple equations with one unknown, we need to find the value of that unknown variable.

What is a Variable?

A variable is a symbol (usually a letter like x, y, or z) that represents an unknown value.

Example: x + 5 = 12

Here, x is the variable we need to find.
