Topics: anagram, codeword, letter map, number, rational numbers, rounding

Each correct answer gives a number. Use the scrambled letter map to translate those numbers into letters. The five letters you uncover form an anagram – solve it to unlock the codeword. Round normally to get to a rational number, if needed.

0 = A | 1 = G | 11 = S | 20 = O | 13 = T | 3 = L | 19 = E | 4 = M | 17 = Y | 15 = N

Code Breaker – Easy

What you’re doing: solve each equation to get a number, use the puzzle’s number→letter map to translate those numbers into letters, then rearrange the letters into a secret word.

Start like this:

  • Solve each equation carefully (expand, simplify, isolate x, then compute the value).
  • Write your answers in order (1, 2, 3…) so you don’t mix up which letter goes where.
  • Use the letter map to convert each number to a letter.

Finish: collect the letters and anagram them into a word that matches the puzzle’s theme/hint.
