A Variable is a symbol for a number we don't know yet. It is usually a letter like x or y.A number on its own is called a Constant.A Coefficient is a number used to multiply a variable (4x means 4 times x, so 4 is a coefficient)An Operator is a symbol (such as +, etc) that represents an operation (ie you want to do something with the values).

Example
Order of operation: Addition s the last thing you do:2+4(5)=2+20=22 O of o:multiply and divide:Whichever comes first:10/2(5)=5(5)=25
