WHAT'S INCLUDED:

Algebra Riddles - Solving Equations with Unknown Values

• With this worksheet, your students will determine the unknown variable in equations involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. It provides a great opportunity for your students to practice using the inverse operation to solve algebraic equations. Each value they determine will provide them with a letter clue to solve the riddle. Students love these activities because of the anticipation of figuring out the secret answer to the riddle and the fact that they can self check their own work.

Solve Equations with Unknown Variable - Algebra Riddle Worksheet (Exponents and Integers)

• Students will determine the unknown variable in algebra equations involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. The algebraic equations also include integers and exponents. Each value they determine will provide them with a letter clue to solve the riddle. Students love these activities because of the anticipation of figuring out the secret answer to the riddle and the fact that they can self check their own work.

Algebra Code breaking: Solving Equations with Unknown Variables

• Students solve equations that use two or more variables. Once they determine the value of the unknown variable in one equation, they will substitute it into the next equation to determine the next unknown. 2 of the unknown values make up grid coordinates that reveal the secret location of a hidden treasure left behind by an eccentric mathematician millionaire. Your students will love this code breaking activity.
