↪ Generally in algebra we operate letters or symbols without assigning any particular numerical value at all.

↪ The literal numbers are also known as literals. Literal numbers obey all the rules of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division of numbers. Thus,

a + b means b is added to a

a - b means b is subtracted from a

a × b means a is multiplied by b

a ÷ b means a is divided by b
