Properties of Equality Reflexive Property a = a
Properties of Equality Symmetric Property If a = b then b = a
Properties of Equality Transitive Property If a = b and b = c then a = c
Properties of Equality Addition Property If a = b then a + c = b + c
Properties of Equality Subtraction Property If a = b then a - c = b - c
Properties of Equality Multiplication Property If a = b then ac = bc
Properties of Equality Division Property If a = b and c = 0 then a/c = b/c
Properties of Equality Whatever you do to one side of an equation
Properties of Equality do the same thing to the other side
Properties of Equality and the two sides will stay equal
Examples n – 6 = 9
Examples n – 6 = 9 Add 6 to both sides (addition property)
Examples n – 6 =
Examples n – 6 = n = 3
Examples n = 3
Examples -35 = -5r
Examples -35 = -5r Divide both sides by -5 (division property)
Examples -35 = -5r -5 -5
Examples 7 = r
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16 Distribute to get the m out of the parentheses
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16 -3m - 9 = 16 Distribute to get the m out of the parentheses
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16 -3m - 9 = 16 Add 9 to both sides (addition property)
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16 -3m - 9 =
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16 -3m - 9 = m = 25
Examples -3(m + 3) = 16 -3m - 9 = m = 25 Divide both sides by -3 (division property)
Examples -3m =
Examples m = -25 3
Examples 4s + 6s = 100
Examples 4s + 6s = 100 Combine like terms
Examples 4s + 6s = s = 100 Combine like terms
Examples 4s + 6s = s = 100 Divide each side by 10 (division property)
Examples 4s + 6s = s =
Examples s = 10
Examples g = 4 + 6g
Examples g = 4 + 6g Move the variable to one side of the equation
Examples g = 4 + 6g -2g -2g (subtraction property)
Examples g = 4 + 6g -2g -2g 12 = 4 + 4g
Examples g = 4 + 6g -2g -2g 12 = 4 + 4g Subtract 4 from both sides (subtraction property)
Examples g = 4 + 6g -2g -2g 12 = 4 + 4g = 4g
Examples g = 4 + 6g -2g -2g 12 = 4 + 4g = 4g Divide both sides by 4
Examples g = 4 + 6g -2g -2g 12 = 4 + 4g = 4g 4 4
Examples 2 = g
