Problems define a variable as the starting amount (grapes, books, stacks, muffins, books, pencils, fish, juice, cookies, or books remaining) and give a final total after an action. The worksheet asks students to select from multiple-choice equation options, with an accompanying answer key indicating the correct letter for each item.","Writing an Equation from a Word Problem  \nName:  \n\n| Choose the equation that models each situation. |  |  |  | 1. |  |  | Answers |  |  |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 1) Sarah shared her grapes equally among 4 friends.
