Grade 6 gradeMath subjectFree quiz

Sixth-grade algebraic expressions use variables as stand-ins for numbers. 3x means 3 times x. Students evaluate an expression by substituting, combine like terms such as 2x + 5x, and use the distributive property, as in 3(x + 4) = 3x + 12.

What you practice

These are the Grade 6 Algebraic Expressions skills this quiz is built around.

Evaluate an expression by substituting a given value for the variable.
Combine like terms that have the same variable and exponent, such as 4y + 3y = 7y.
Apply the distributive property to a product of a number and a sum.

A useful tip

Like terms have the same variable and the same exponent. 3x and 5x combine to 8x. 3x and 3x² do not combine. Substituting x = 2 into 3x + 5 is 6 + 5 = 11.
