How to solve a two step equation when your variable is multiplied by a fraction

The video tutorial explains two methods for solving two-step equations. The first method involves using inverse operations, focusing on undoing addition and subtraction, and then dealing with multiplication by fractions using reciprocals. The second method simplifies the process by eliminating fractions through multiplication by a common denominator. Both methods aim to make solving equations more intuitive, depending on the learner's comfort with fractions.
