Property of Equality

Front

What is the Subtraction Property of Equality?

Back

If you subtract the same number from both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal. For example, if a = b, then a - c = b - c.

What is the Addition Property of Equality?

Back

If you add the same number to both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal. For example, if a = b, then a + c = b + c.

What is the Multiplication Property of Equality?

Back

If you multiply both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number, the two sides remain equal. For example, if a = b, then a * c = b * c.
