Almost everyone has heard about these two-term, Expression and Equation, in real life, most often in math class. Both terms are used in real-world problems. Both contain numbers and variables. The one difference between both terms is that Expression does not have an equal sign while the Equation always has an equal sign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let us take a closer look at Expression vs. Equation:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Structure<\/strong><\/td>
Both have variables and numbers, but Equation has an equal sign also<\/td><\/tr>
Word identification<\/strong><\/td>
an expression is like a phrase, while an Equation forms a complete sentence<\/td><\/tr>
Answers<\/strong><\/td>
The Expression has a numerical value as an answer, while the Equation has an assertion.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
