Step by step

The question

Question: write with math signs: 4 more than triple a number.

1 Change words to math

2 Put it in order

We start with triple a number, then add 4.

So we get 3n + 4.

3 Check

Let's check with a number.

Say the number is 10.

4 more than triple 10 is 34.

And 3(10) + 4 is 34 too.

So 3n + 4 is right!

Let's look back.

First: change words to math.

Then: put it in order.

Last: check.
