What is an equation?

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

During the hike, he saw 6 lizards, 1 scorpion, 2 foxes, 3 jackrabbits, 6 deer, and 2 snakes.

Total number of animals = 6 + 1 + 2 + 3 + 6 + 2 = 20 animals

Percentage of animals that were snakes = (2 / 20) * 100% = 10%

During the hike, Rick saw 20 animals and 10% of the animals were snakes.
