They have come up with a wonderful thing called "punctuation", and "capital letters". Hopefully, it will be available in your area soon. Then this problem can be much more understandable.

Rewriting, using this wonderful thing:
:
Sally has f bags of lego. In each are 22 blocks. Sam has 9 lego blocks to spare,
so he gives them to Sally. Write an expression for number of blocks Sally has.
Sally has 119 blocks. Form an equation. Solve the equation to find the number of lego bags Sally has.
:
An expression for the number of blocks Sally has after receiving 9 from Sam
22f + 9
:
"Form an equation for the number of blocks Sally has:"
22f + 9 = 119
:
"Solve the equation to find the number of lego bags, Sally has." (Find f)
22f + 9 = 119
:
Subtract 9 from both sides:
22f = 119 - 9
:
22f = 110
f = ; divide both sides by 22
f = 5 bags
:
Check this in the equation we formed:
22(5) + 9 =
110 + 9 = 119 confirms our solution of f = 5
