1. 4x + 8 = 15 ; x = 5
2. 8x = 24 ; x = 4
3. 2x - 3 > 6 ; x = 3
4. 1 0x - 8 < - 1 ; x = -1
5. 6x - 8 = 3x - 2 ; x = 2

Using Multiplication or Division Property of Equality

Example 1: 5x = 35
1 1

Multiply 6 both sides of the equation (MPE) x = -12

2. Application
F ind the value of x of the ff. linear equations. Match each equation in Column
A with its column B.

Column A Column B
1. 5x = 85 a. -7
2. 16 = d / 7 b. -1 / 4
3. a / -4 = -14 c. 17
4. -44b = 11 d. 2.3
5. c / 12 = -8 e. 56
6. -4.5e = 31.5 f. -96
g. 112

So class, do you have any question? Is it clear?

3. Generalization
Multiplication Property of Equality (MPE)
An equation involving a product of a variable and a number. It can solve a
multiplication equation by dividing.

Division Property of Equality (MPE)

An equation involving a quotient of a variable and a non-zero number. It can
solve a division equation by multiplying.

IV. Evaluation
Solve each equation. Check your solution.
1. 3a = 27
2. b / -5 = -13
3. d / 2 = 15
4. -4g = -20
5. -9h = 99
V. Assignment
Follow-up
1. Elen bought 4 pens priced at P7.90 each and 2 pens priced at P9.70 each. Find the
average price she paid per pens.
2. Ambet earned P837.50 for working with an hourly rate of P67.00. How many hours did
he work?

Advanced Assignment
1. Study and try to solve Multi-step equation using properties of equality.
