In algebra, we use letter symbols to stand for numbers.

These letters are called unknowns or variables.

Sometimes we can work out the value of the letters and sometimes we can’t.

We can use algebra to help us solve problems by making up algebraic expressions and

equations using the letters to represent the unknown value or variable.
