Algebra Adventures for Kids

Solve each number puzzle. Write the missing value for every letter or symbol. Check that each equation balances.

Algebra uses symbols

A letter or symbol can stand for a number we do not yet know. For example, if ★ + 4 = 9, then ★ = 5 because 5 + 4 = 9. To keep an equation balanced, whatever you do to one side, do to the other side too.

Match each equation to its missing number

Work out the value of the symbol in each equation. Match each equation to one answer on the right.

Find the value of each letter

1.Solve a + 5 = 12. What is a?
2.Solve b − 4 = 3. What is b?
3.Solve 7 + c = 13. What is c?
4.Solve d × 3 = 12. What is d?
5.Solve 11 − e = 6. What is e?
