Let us now look at example A.

A. 12 880
Can we say that 12 880 is a numerical expression?
Going back to the description of numerical expression.
12 880 is a symbol
12 880 represents a number
The example simply gives us a number. So by being a
number, according to the description above, 12 880 is a
numerical expression.
Therefore, 12 880 is a numerical expression.
An equation is a number sentence
with an equal sign (=) to show that
the expression on the left side has
the same value as the expression
on the right side.
An equation is a mathematical
sentence showing two expressions
that are equal.
How do you differentiate expression from equation?
To sum up:
1.Expressions are incomplete mathematical phrases whereas
equations are complete mathematical statements.
2.Expressions are like the typical English phrase whereas
equations are complete sentences.
3.Equations show relationships whereas expressions don’t
show any.
4.Equations have an equal sign whereas expressions don’t
have any.
5.Equations are to be solved while expressions are to be
simplified.
6.Equations have a solution while expressions don’t have any.
Write the ff. sentences or phrases in proper column:
1.a phrase
2.a sentence Expression Equation
3.solves
4.simplifies
5.has a relation symbol
6. has no relation symbol
7. has no equal sign
8. Has an equal sign
9. Has a left and right sides
10. Doesn’t have any sides
