ObjectiveThe student will be able to: solve equations using multiplication and division.
1) Solve. -5t = 60 To get the variable by itself, which number needs to be moved? -5 To move the -5, you have to do the opposite operation. What operation will we use? division
1) Solve -5t = 60 -5 -5 t = -12 -5(-12) = 60 • Draw “the river” to separate the equation into 2 sides • Divide both sides by -5 • Simplify • Check your answer
4) Solve You don’t like fractions? Let’s get rid of them! “Clear the fraction” by multiplying both sides of the equation by the denominator.
4) Solve • Draw “the river” • Clear the fraction – multiply both sides by 4 • Simplify • Check your answer 4 ·· 4 x = -48
