There are three sets of solving two-step equations worksheets with decimals.

To solve two-step equations with decimals, follow these steps:

Clear any decimals by multiplying both sides of the equation by a multiple of ten that will eliminate the decimals and results in a new equation with whole numbers.
Example:
0.5x + 1.2 = 3.7
Multiply every term in the equation by 10 (to remove the decimal point):
(10)(0.5)x + (10)(1.2)= (10)3.7
This simplifies to:
5x + 12 = 37
Solve the equation by performing the inverse operations.
Undo addition: Subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:
5x + 12 - 12 = 37 - 12
5x = 25
Undo multiplication: Divide both sides of the equation by 5.
5/5 x = 25/5
x = 5
Check your solution by substituting it back into the original equation to ensure it satisfies the equality.
