Solving Multiplication and
1-4 Division Equations
You can solve a multiplication equation using the
Division Property of Equality.
DIVISION PROPERTY OF EQUALITY
Words
You can divide both
sides of an equation
by the same
nonzero number,
and the equation
will still be true.

Solving Multiplication and
1-4 Division Equations
Sometimes it is necessary to solve equations
by using two inverse operations. For instance,
the equation 6x  2 = 10 has multiplication
and subtraction.
Variable term
Multiplication
6x  2 = 10
Subtraction
To solve this equation, add to isolate the
term with the variable in it. Then divide to
solve.

Additional Example 5: Solving a Simple Two-Step
Equation
Solve 3y – 7 = 20.
Step 1:
Step 2:
Pre-Algebra
3y – 7 = 20
+7 +7
3y
= 27
Add 7 to both sides to
isolate the term with y in it.
3y = 27 Divide both sides by 3.

Try This: Example 5
Solve 4y + 5 = 29.
Step 1:
Step 2:
Pre-Algebra
4y + 5 = 29 Subtract 5 from both sides to
– 5 – 5 isolate the term with y in it.
4y
= 24
4y = 24 Divide both sides by 4.
