III. Procedure
A. Drill
Translate Me!
Direction: Translate the word phrase into numerical expression/ equation or vice versa.
Ask:
How do you translate word phrase into numerical expression/ equation and vice
versa?
C. Motivation
Richard bought 5 apples which cost ₱12.00 each. She gave the seller a ₱100.00 bill. How much
change did Richard receive?
Let:
y = be the cost of apples
z = be the change that Leni received from her ₱100.00 bill
Solution: 5 x ₱12.00 = y
P60.00 = y
To find the change Leni received, we use this equation: ₱100.00 – ₱60.00 = z
D. Presentation
1. 15 – (a + 6)
2. 25 ÷ n = 5
3. c = 48
4. 37 – m = 29
5. z = 24 – 18
1. 15 x³
2. 29 + p = 31
3. b – 30 ÷ 10
4. 24s + 9 = 57
5. ( 16 ÷ 4 ) – 3 = x
Direction: Identify the variable used in the word phrase to represent an unknown number.
1. fifteen is subtracted from the quotient of a and b.
2. a diminished by seven
3. four greater than two times y is equal to sixty.
4. the sum of b and six is forty.
5. thrice m decreased by twenty
H. Application
