Solving Equations with Algebra Tiles | Brainingcamp

To solve an equation, model the terms of the equation on both sides of an equals sign. Isolate the variable on one side by adding opposites and creating zero pairs.

To remove a factor from the variable, divide the sides into rows equal to the factor and distribute the terms equally among all the rows.

The solution to the equation is the value opposite the isolated variable. This video uses the Algebra Tiles virtual manipulative from brainingcamp.com.
