Being able to translate words into a mathematical expression is an important skill, but being able to go the other way is just as crucial. Watch as the teacher takes a simple algebraic expression and demonstrates how to translate that...

Given an algebraic expression, write a word problem. Usually it's the other way around where you have a word problem and need to write an algebraic expression. But, this is a good skill to have because it would mean that one has a good...
