The steps in solving 5b - 6 = 24 are: 

• Add 6 to both sides and divide both sides by 5
• Add 6 to both sides and multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then multiply both sides by 5
• Subtract 6 from both sides then divide both sides by 5

In the equation
4p = 20
 the variable, p, is being multiplied by 4. How should you show your work to isolate the variable and solve the equation?

• Multiply both sides by 4.
  The solution is x = 80.
• Subtract 4 from both sides. 
  The solution is p = 16.
• Add 4 to both sides. The solution is p = 24.
• Divide both sides by 4. The solution is p = 5.
