Do your students need practice determining equivalent expressions with exponents, the commutative property, the distributive property, and more with just numbers and with variables?

In each row, there are 3 equivalent expressions and one that is not equivalent. Find the odd one out. Answer Key included. Perfect for a substitute day!
