Solving equations with distributive property worksheet answer key

Objective: I know how to solve equations by distributive property.

To solve algebra equations using the distributive property, we need to distribute (or multiply) the number with each term in the expression. In that way, the parenthesis are removed. We can then combine like terms and solve by equivalent equations when necessary.

Solving Multi-Step Equations

Solve equations involving the distributive property of multiplication

These equations require the student to distribute a multiplied value across terms within parentheses before combining like terms. It is usually not easy to do it in any other way. All problems resolve to integers. You can adjust the difficulty of the problems by increasing the values size, using negative coefficients and flipping the sides of the equations.
