Exploring Expressions with Variables

The video tutorial explains how to write expressions using variables. It covers the meaning of 'increased by' as addition, 'less than' as subtraction with reversed order, 'decreased by' as straightforward subtraction, and how to represent division in algebra without using the division sign. Each concept is illustrated with examples to help learners understand the correct order and representation of mathematical operations in expressions.
