When a variable is in the denominator, what operation should be performed to both sides of the equation?

• Divide by the denominator

• Multiply by the denominator

• Subtract the denominator

• Add the denominator

In the equation X + Y / Z = B + A, what is the first step to isolate Y?

• Multiply by Z on both sides

• Add X to both sides

• Subtract X from both sides

• Divide by Z on both sides

What is the final step to solve for Y in the equation X + Y = Z(B + A)?

• Multiply by Z on both sides

• Add X to both sides

What is the result of multiplying Z on both sides of the equation X + Y / Z = B + A?

• X + Y = B + ZA

• X + Y = Z(B + A)

• X + Y = B + A

• X + Y = ZB + A
