Question

Match the mathematical expression with its translation

Answer 1

Answer:

$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Mathematical expression}&\text{Translation}\\ \\xy&\text{The product of two numbers}\\ \\\dfrac{x}{y}&x\text{ divided by }y\\ \\x-y&x\text{ minus }y\\ \\x+y&\text{the sum of }x\text{ and }y\\ \\y-x&x\text{ subtracted from }y\\ \\y:x&y\text{ divided by } x\\ \\x+y=6&\text{the sum of two numbers is 6}\\ \\xy=6&\text{the product of two numbers is 6}\\ \\6x=y&\text{6 times a number equals }y\\ \\y=x-6&\text{6 less than a number is }y\end{array}$
