Here is an example:
\setupcolors[state=start]
\def\solutionbox
{\dosingleempty\dosolutionbox}
\def\dosolutionbox[#1]%
{\mframed[width=2em,background=color,backgroundcolor=lightgreen,#1]
{\strut}}
\starttext
Not aligned
\startformula \startalign[n=1]
\NC 6 + 7 + 4 = \solutionbox \NR
\NC 16 + 5 + 4 = \solutionbox[width=1cm] \NR
\NC 6 + 200 + 4 = \solutionbox[width=3cm] \NR
\stopalign \stopformula

\startformula
\startalign[n=7,align={right,middle,right,middle,right,middle,left}]
\NC 6 \NC + \NC 7 \NC + \NC 4 \EQ \NC \solutionbox \NR
\NC 16 \NC + \NC 5 \NC + \NC 4 \EQ \NC \solutionbox[width=1cm] \NR
\NC 6 \NC + \NC 200 \NC + \NC 4 \EQ \NC \solutionbox[width=3cm] \NR
