Equation

An equation is a mathematical statement that asserts the equality of two expressions. It consists of two sides separated by an equal sign (=). Each side of the equation can contain numbers, variables (which represent unknown values), and mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. For example, the equation \(2x + 3 = 7\) asserts that the expression \(2x + 3\) is equal to \(7\).
