6CO₂ + 6H₂O + light energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

Here's what each part represents:

* 6CO₂: Six molecules of carbon dioxide

* 6H₂O: Six molecules of water

* light energy: Energy from sunlight

* C₆H₁₂O₆: One molecule of glucose (a sugar)

* 6O₂: Six molecules of oxygen

In simpler terms:

* Carbon dioxide and water, using light energy, are converted into glucose (sugar) and oxygen.

This process is how plants and some other organisms make their own food (glucose) and release oxygen as a byproduct.
