Let's solve this step by step.
We are asked to identify whether each given item is an
expression or an
equation.
Definitions:
-
Expression: A mathematical phrase that combines numbers, variables, and operations (like +, −, ×, ÷), but
does not have an equals sign (=).
Example: `30 + 92`, `(44 + 4) + 1`
-
Equation: A mathematical statement that shows two expressions are equal, using the
equals sign (=).
Example: `(2 × 50) − 22 = 78`
