How to solve thex + 3 = 10
type of equation
You get rid of the
+ 3 by - 3
But you must subtract 3 from both
sides
x + 3 =10
x + 3 – 3 = 10 - 3
x = 7
For equations like x + 3 = 10
just subtract 3 from both sides
x + 3 = 10
x = 10 - 3
x = 7 Like this
How to solve thex – 3 = 7
type of equation
You get rid of the
– 3 by
+ 3
But you must to add 3 to both sides
x – 3 = 7
x – 3 + 3 = 7 + 3
x = 10
For equations like x – 3 = 7
just add 3 to both sides
x – 3 = 7
x – 3 + 3 = 7 + 3
x =10 Like this
How to solve the5x = 20
type of equation
5x = 20 means 5 X x =
20
5x = 20
5 X x = 20
5x = 20 means 5 X x =
20
So, you get rid of the 5 X by
÷ 5
5x = 20
5 X x ÷ 5 = 20 ÷ 5
5x = 20 means 5 X x =
20
So, you get rid of the 5 X by
÷ 5
5x = 20
5 X x ÷ 5 = 20 ÷ 5
x = 4
5x = 20 means 5 X x =
20
So, you get rid of the 5 X by
÷ 5
But you must divide both sides by 5
5x = 20
5 X x ÷ 5 = 20 ÷ 5
x = 4
For equations like 5x = 20
just divide both sides by the number that multiplies the x.
5x = 20
x = 20 ÷ 5
x = 4 Like this
How to solve thex/3 = 4
type of equation
x/3 = 4
x ÷ 3 = 4
It means
x ÷ 3 = 4
x/3 = 4
x ÷ 3 = 4
x ÷ 3 X 3 = 4 X 3
Get rid of
÷ 3 by
using a
X 3
It means
x ÷ 3 = 4
x/3 = 4
x ÷ 3 = 4
x ÷ 3 X 3 = 4 X 3
x = 12
Get rid of
÷ 3 by
using a
X 3
It means
x ÷ 3 = 4
x/3 = 4
x ÷ 3 = 4
x ÷ 3 X 3 = 4 X 3
x = 12
Get rid of
÷ 3 by
using a
X 3
You must
X 3 on both
sides
It means
x ÷ 3 = 4
For equations like x/3 = 4
just multiply both sides by the number that divides the x.
x/3 = 4
x = 4 X 3
x =12 Like this
Remember, always do the same thing to both sides.
Felix is checking that you do this properly.
x/3 = 12
x ÷ 3 X 3 = 12 X 3
x =36
