Simplifying Equations

Introduction to simplify equations:
In this article let me help you on simplifying equations. An equation is defined as the the equality of two expressions which consists of variables and constants. Equations consist of the expressions that is to be equal to the opposite sides of an equal sign.

The following rules are used to simplify the equations and the equation does not change.
1) Add or subtract any variable or numbers to the both sides of the equation.
2) Multiply or divide any variable or numbers to the both sides of the equation.

Examples of equation: m+10=14, x+22=11, x+25=1,….
Now, we are going to see some of the simplifying equations problems.
Simplifying Equations Problems:

Example problem 1:
Simplify the equation: 7 x + 7 = 91

Solution:
Subtract 7 on both sides of the equation
7x + 7 - 7 = 91 – 7
7x = 84
Divide by 7 on both sides of the equation. This could also help us on area of a quadrilateral
7x / 7 = 84 / 7
x = 12
So, the simplified answer is x = 12.
