Solve One-Step Equations

What is the Division Property of Equality?

• The Division Property of Equality states that if you multiply both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number, the two sides remain equal.

• The Division Property of Equality states that if you add the same number to both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal.

• The Division Property of Equality states that if you divide both sides of an equation by the same non-zero number, the two sides remain equal.

• The Division Property of Equality states that if you subtract the same number from both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal.

What is the purpose of solving equations?
