What You'll Learn

Algebra is the foundation of higher mathematics. These practice exercises will help you master the essential skill of solving equations — finding the value of an unknown variable.

One-Step Equations

These equations require just one operation to solve. You'll practice isolating the variable by using inverse operations.

Example:

3x = 12

To solve, divide both sides by 3: x = 4

Two-Step Equations

These require two operations. Typically, you'll undo addition/subtraction first, then multiplication/division.

Example:

2x + 5 = 13

Step 1: Subtract 5 → 2x = 8

Step 2: Divide by 2 → x = 4

Distributive Property

When a number multiplies a group in parentheses, multiply it by each term inside.

Example:

3(x + 2) = 15

Distribute: 3x + 6 = 15

Then solve: x = 3

Combining Like Terms

Add coefficients of the same variable together before solving.

Example:

2x + 4x + 3 = 15

Combine: 6x + 3 = 15

Then solve: x = 2
