'Count terms in expressions' for 6th grade

Count terms in expressions

In algebra a "term" is any combination of variables, exponents and constants or coefficients upon which mathematical operations such as addition or multipliation can be performed. Examples of terms are:

5q 47c -15g 6yยณ -cdโปยณ

Terms are most often found grouped together into expressions. Expressions are groups of terms separated by mathematical operators. Examples of expressions are:

y + 5 3yยฒ - x 2f x 3fโปยณ 4gยณ รท 15hโด


How to count terms in an expression

Terms in an expression are separated by mathematical operators such as plus or minus. To count terms, take the number of operators and add 1. Or count the things you know are terms based on our definition above.

5pยฒ + 3qโต - 8

So in the expression above we have 3 terms ( and 2 mathematical operators ).


Why do we care how many terms there are in an expression?

This topic is checking that you can distinguish what makes an element in an expression a term. By asking you to count terms, we are helping to clarify what is or isn't a term in an expression. Remember that constants (numbers without variables) are also terms if they are not coefficients of variables.

aยณ + 3aยณ 2 terms : aยณ and 3aยณ

5pยฒ + 3qโต - 8 3 terms : 5pยฒ and 3qโต and 8

With our Choose or lose math game you will be practicing the topic "Count terms in expressions" from 6th grade / Algebra / Algebraic notation / Algebraic notation. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to count the number of terms in each of the given expressions.

Select the correct answers to the secondary math problems before the clock counts you out
