Chapter 12.1

Solving linear equations using multiplication and division


What You'll Learn

Identify operations needed to isolate the variable in one-step equations
Apply the inverse operation to solve equations involving multiplication
Apply the inverse operation to solve equations involving division
Use cross-multiplication to solve equations with fractions on both sides
Verify solutions by substituting back into the original equation

What You'll Practice

1

Solving equations by dividing both sides to remove coefficients

2

Solving equations by multiplying both sides to eliminate denominators

3

Cross-multiplying to solve fractional equations

4
