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 6y³ -cd⁻³
Terms are most often found grouped together into expressions. Expressions are groups of terms separated by mathematical operators. Examples of expressions are:
y + 5 3y² - x 2f x 3f⁻³ 4g³ ÷ 15h⁴
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.
5p² + 3q⁵ - 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.
a³ + 3a³ 2 terms : a³ and 3a³
5p² + 3q⁵ - 8 3 terms : 5p² and 3q⁵ and 8
With our Mix and match 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.
In this game we are in a room with lots of toys - and the room needs clearing up - you need to put the play blocks back in the right boxes to tidy the room and win the game...but which is the right box for each block? Well, you can work that out by comparing the question on the block with the math answer on each of the boxes - you should drag the question block into the box whose math answer matches the picture question.
You can listen to the spoken math answer by clicking on the individual boxes. There are 5 blocks to clear up - but if you put them in the wrong boxes, there will be more... Anyway, tidy is good and practicing math is better so start now and see how you get on...
This game reinforces the math you learned or revised in the lesson by asking you to match each question to the correct answer. If you are older you may not like the childish reference to toys, but don't worry - there are other games to play, and who knows - you might like a trip down memory lane?

'Count terms in expressions' for 6th grade
There are 5 blocks that need putting away to tidy the play room. Drag (they are heavy...) the blocks to the correct boxes.
- Click on "PLAY" on the settings page to start the game
- You see the first question block and 3 boxes to put it into
- On each box is a possible math answer to the question
- Click on any answer box to hear the spoken audio for that answer
- Drag the question block to the answer box where it belongs
- If you are correct, the block will stay in the box, the ball will roll and the teddy bear will do a little jump
- If you are wrong, a wrong sound will play and the question block will jump back to where it was, and you can try again
- Clear all 5 question blocks to complete the game
