Problems are often answered in mathematics by solving equations. To solve them, we need to find what number the letter in the equation represents. That number is called the solution of the equation.

For an equation, the expression on the left hand side is equal to the expression on the right hand side. This means the equation is balanced. We need to find a value for \(a\) which keeps this balance ...
