Sure! Let's break it down step by step:

1. Identify Han's score with a variable: Let's use the variable \(\( h \)\) to represent Han's score.

2. Translate the verbal statement into a mathematical equation:
- "10 more than Han's score" can be translated to \(\( h + 10 \)\).
- "is" means equals, so we use the equal sign \(\( = \)\).
- The number given is 72.

Putting these parts together, the sentence "10 more than Han's score is 72" translates to the equation:
\(\[ h + 10 = 72 \]\)

3. Solve the equation for \(\( h \)\):
- Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation to isolate \(\( h \)\):
\(\[ h + 10 - 10 = 72 - 10 \]\)
- Simplify the equation:
\(\[ h = 62 \]\)

Therefore, Han's score \(\( h \)\) is 62.
