Solving 1-Step Equations

Front

What is a one-step equation?

Back

A one-step equation is an equation that can be solved in a single step by performing the same operation on both sides to isolate the variable.

Front

How do you solve the equation r / 3 = 7?

Back

Multiply both sides by 3: r = 7 * 3, so r = 21.

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 11 = m - 4?

Back

Add 4 to both sides: 11 + 4 = m, so m = 15.

Front

How do you solve the equation 18 = a/2?

Back

Multiply both sides by 2: a = 18 * 2, so a = 36.

Front

What is the solution to the equation v/5 = 9?

Back

Multiply both sides by 5: v = 9 * 5, so v = 45.

Front

How do you solve the equation 1 + s = 3?

Back

Subtract 1 from both sides: s = 3 - 1, so s = 2.

Front

What operation do you perform to isolate the variable in the equation x + 5 = 10?

Back

Subtract 5 from both sides: x = 10 - 5.

Front

What is the solution to the equation 2y = 16?

Back

Divide both sides by 2: y = 16 / 2, so y = 8.

Front

How do you solve the equation 5 = z - 3?

Back

Add 3 to both sides: 5 + 3 = z, so z = 8.

Front

What is the first step to solve the equation 4x = 20?

Back

Divide both sides by 4: x = 20 / 4, so x = 5.
