Multi-Step Equations

Crash Course Video Lesson

Crash Course Video Lesson (Spanish)

Common Misconceptions to Look Out For

• Incorrectly applying the distributive property
• Combining terms incorrectly (mixing constants with variables)
• Forgetting to simplify both sides before isolating the variable

Differentiation Tips

• Scaffolding: Start with simpler multi-step equations without distribution, then introduce variables on both sides and distribution.
• Advanced Learners: Use complex multi-step equations and word problems that require translating real-life scenarios into multi-step equations.
