In mathematics, a formula (plural: formulas or formulae ) is an entity constructed using the symbols and formation rules of a given logical language.

In science, a formula is a concise way of expressing information symbolically (as in a mathematical or chemical formula), or a general relationship between quantities. Colloquial use of the term in mathematics often refers to a similar construct.

Such formulas are the key to solving an equation with variables. For example, determining the volume of a sphere requires a significant amount of integral calculus; but, having done this once, mathematicians can produce a formula to describe the volume in terms of some other parameter (the radius for example). This particular formula is:

Having obtained this result, and knowing the radius of the sphere in question, we can quickly and easily determine its volume. Note that the quantities V, the volume, and r the radius are expressed as single letters. This convention, while less important in a relatively simple formula, means that mathematicians can more quickly manipulate larger and more complex formulae.

Expressions are distinct from formulas in that they cannot contain an equals sign; whereas formulas are comparable to sentences, expressions are more like phrases.

In a general context, formulae are applied to provide a mathematical solution for real world problems. Some may be general: F = ma, which is one expression of Newton's second law, is applicable to a wide range of physical situations. Other formulae may be specially created to solve a particular problem; for example, using the equation of a sine curve to model the movement of the tides in a bay. In all cases however, formulae form the basis for all calculations.

What formula would I use to figure out my expected commission?
Q. So I have been trying to figure out this formula, with no success. I have spent $3.81 on advertising a certain product, and have been paid a commission of $22. So, what I need to figure out is this: What will my commission be per $100 I spend on advertising? I just need a formula to plug into Excel, because I have several different scenarios I need to know this for. Any formula suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

A. First find the commission per dollar =22/3.81 then multiply the answer by 100. Eg. A1 = 3.81 B1 = 22 A2 = 100 therefore B2 = (B1/A1)*A2

How much formula should a 5month old baby take in?
Q. I want to know how much formula she should drink not in awhole day but at one time. Right now we have her on 4oz. But she seems to want more so I incresed it to 5oz or 6oz sometimes. & she usually feeds every 3 hours but she seems to want it more often like every 2hours. I don't want to overfed her but I don't want her to be hungry either. So im just wondering whats the Average amount of formula 5 month old babies are taking in. Thanks in advance.!

A. Feed her on demand. If she sometimes needs 5 oz. every two hours, fine. If she can drink 6 oz. every 3 hours, fine. There is no set amount that she should be taking in at each feed. However, at 5 months, the TOTAL amount/day ranges from 24-32 oz. Your baby, though, may be taking in a little more or less than that.

How do you determine the chemical formula of an ionic compound?
Q. Im studying chemistry right now and i am having trouble determining what the chemical formulas are to ionic and covalent compounds. Here is a sample question: Calcium (Ca) combines with chlorine (Cl) to form calcium chloride, an ionic compound. Calcium has two electrons in its outer energy level and chlorine has seven electrons in its outer energy level. Determine the formula for calcium chloride and EXPLAIN your answer. I researched calcium chloride and found the formula is CaCl2, but on a test i wont be able to research the answer. Are there easy ways to determining chemical formulas? Thank you for helping, Ryan C.

A. In ionic compounds, you have the metals (on the left side of the periodic table) who tend to pass off electrons, and you have the non-metals (on the right side) who have "gaps" in their electron shells and tend to accept electrons. In the case of CaCl2: Chlorine has 7 electrons in its outer shell. A full shell for would require 8 electrons, so it is "looking" for 1 extra electron to fill its outer shell. Calcium has 2 electrons in its outer shell. It would like to give those extra two away, so it's looking for 2 takers. Soo... Chlorine (with the one gap) calls up another Chlorine (also with the one gap), and now you have a total of two gaps. Two extra electrons from Calcium and two gaps from the two Chlorine make a good fit, and… [cont.]
