Solving Multi-Step Equations
The following properties are true for any number a, b, and c.
Addition Property of Equality: If a = b, then a + c = b + c. Subtraction Property of Equality: If a = b, then a - c = b - c. Multiplication Property of Equality: If a = b, then ac = bc.
Division Property of Equality: If a = b, then a/c = b/c c ≠ 0
