They always said algebra was another language. Write it just as you read it.

"half of the 7th graders" = 1/2 x s
"one third of the 8th graders" = 1/3 x e
"divided into 10 teams" = put everything over the denominator of 10
final answer=
( (s)/(2) + (e)/(3) )/(10)

5. 3g/10 + 25f

6. (3e - 4) + (2w + 6)

Hope this helps!
