Express missing number problems algebraically

Year 6Algebra1 resource teaches this

What this means, in plain words

Algebra uses a letter to stand in for a number that is not known yet.

This is problem solving: the maths is met inside a situation, so the first job is working out which operation the question is asking for.

Number work here is about how our number system is built, and about knowing what a number is worth rather than just how it is spelled.
