Level 3-4 Algebra - Putting Numbers in Place of Letters
You've probably figured out by now that algebra is a big player in KS3 Maths. In algebra, instead of numbers, we use letters like a and b. When these letters stand for unknown numbers, we call them variables. But sometimes, we know the numbers they represent – and that's where equations come in.

1 .
If a = 2, b = 3, c = 4 and d = 5, what is the value of 2a + 3b + c2 - d

4 + 9 + 16 - 5 = 24. Don't forget 'IF IN DOUBT, WRITE IT DOWN AND WORK IT OUT!
2 .
If x = 9 and y = 23, what is the value of y - x?

Two letters together need to be multiplied together
4 .
If x = 2 and b = 4, what is the value of x2 + b2?

16 / 2 = 8
7 .
If a = 4 and b = 5, what is the value of 2a + b

Remember that when a number and a letter are together they need to be multiplied together
8 .
If x = 6 and y = 7, which of the following gives a value of 55
x2 + y2
xy2
x + y2
2x + 2y
You can make an estimate before you find the right answer. x2 + y2 would be too high, as would xy2. You can then check the other two more likely answers
9 .
If a = 4 and b = 8, what is the value of 2a + x2
64
75
80
It is impossible to say
Notice that we did not give you a value for x and therefore you cannot work out the expression!
10 .
If a = 6 and x = 8, which of the following gives a value of 22?
a + x2
a + 2x
2a + 2x
2ax
