Multi-Step Equations

 

 

Objective: I know how to solve multi-step equations.

 

To solve a multi-step equation, we would start by trying to simplify the equation by combining like terms and using the distributive property whenever possible.

 

Consider the equation 2( x + 1) – x = 5. First, we will use the distributive property to remove the parenthesis and then we can combine like terms and the isolate the variable.

 

Look at the lesson on Solving Multi-Step Equations if you need help on how to solve multi-step equations.

 

 

 

Fill in all the gaps, then press "Check" to check your answers. Use the "Hint" button to get a free letter if an answer is giving you trouble. You can also click on the "[?]" button to get a clue. Note that you will lose points if you ask for hints or clues!
Solve each equation.

13x – 5 = 10x + 7, x =

x + 6 = 2x – 8, x =

8x + 6 = 3x – 4, x =

3x + 4 = 4x – 3, x =

4(x – 2) = 12, x =

6(2x – 5) = 4x + 2, x =

9x – 4 – 6x = 2(x + 1) – 5, x =

8x – 3(x – 1) = 4(x + 2), x =

14 – (6x – 5) = 5(2x – 1) – 4x, x =

6 – 2(x – 2) = 6(x + 3), x =

 

 

 

 

We hope that the free math worksheets have been helpful. We encourage parents and teachers to select the topics according to the needs of the child. For more difficult questions, the child may be encouraged to work out the problem on a piece of paper before entering the solution. We hope that the kids will also love the fun stuff and puzzles.
