Interesting! I had never seen the phrase "situation equation" though I think I would have guessed the meaning given in Denis' links. If we have the word problem "Alexander has 4 apples less than Betty and Betty has 20 apples. How many apples does Alexander have?" then the "situation equation" is (letting "a" be the number of apples Alexander has) "a+ 4= 20" and the "solution equation" is "a=16".
