To Solve a Simple Two-Step Equation you need to ...

• Undo the Addition/Subtraction first (to remove the constant term), then undo the Multiplication /Division (to remove the coefficient and isolate the variable)

• Undo the Multiplication/Division first (to remove the coefficient and isolate the variable), then undo the Addition/Subtraction (to remove the constant term)

• Multiply both sides by 1

• Substitue zero for the variable (to remove the variable and isolate the constant
