​solving

​

​An equation is made up of two parts that are equal to each other, where at least one of those parts is an algebraic expression.

To show that both parts are equal, we write them with an equals sign between them. Each of the three examples below is an equation

​solving

​​solving

​There are a few important things to remember when rearranging:

1. ​You must always do the same thing to both sides of the equation.

2. To ‘get rid’ of something, do the opposite (use its inverse).
   The inverse of + is – and the inverse of – is +.
   The inverse of × is ÷ and the inverse of ÷ is ×.

3. Finally, you must keep going until you have a letter on its own.

Sometimes, an equation might have an algebraic term (a letter) and a number on the same side. You must still use the same method, but with an extra step.
