Solving one step equations using division

The video tutorial explains how to solve a one-step equation by using inverse operations. It begins with an introduction to the concept of inverse operations and the goal of isolating the variable. The tutorial then demonstrates how to solve the equation by dividing both sides by the same number, ensuring the equation remains balanced. Finally, it shows how to verify the solution and rewrite the equation with the variable isolated.
