    What is an equation?

    An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.
    An independent variable is a variable that does not depends on other variable while a dependent variable is a variable that depends on other variable.
    14 hundreds, six tens, and 5 ones = 14(100) + 6(10) + 5(1) = 1465
    1 thousand, 4 hundreds, 16 tens. and 5 ones = 1(1000) + 4(100) + 16(10) + 5(1) = 1565
    The total that Tony has is 1465 while Gene has a total of 1565, hence they are not equivalent.
