Explain the concept of 'solving for a variable' in the context of literal equations.

• Multiplying the variable by a constant

• Dividing the variable by a constant

• Adding the variable to both sides of the equation

• Isolating the variable on one side of the equation

What is the purpose of 'isolating a variable' in a literal equation?

• To solve for the variable and find its value

• To hide the value of the variable

• To make the equation more complicated

• To make the variable more confusing
