Well done.

Is this the beginning of algebra?

I enjoyed algebra when I was in Year 7.

Also Algebra comes from the Arabic people.

Simplifying algebra?

No wonder, as algebra itself is so simple.

It's something like simplifying fractions. I think you find the lowest numbers or the least operations.

Get your Uncle Darren to explain it.
