Hey fellow scribers! Today I will be teaching you how to do Two Step Algebra with division. I will give you two examples.

First Example: 





Now What you want to do first is you want to get rid of your constant with the opposite order of operations. So now you are left with this:


Now you are left with your coefficient variable and your answer. So you are probably left with something like this:

Next thing you want to do is you want to take out your coefficient and isolate the variable. So now what you want to do is you solve this like a one step algebraic equation. Which is using the opposite order of operations and canceling it out. Just like this:






Now you are left with your answer which is x = 8. Good job! You did it! You are the real MVP at math am I right?? Lets see if you are actually the real MVP. I challenge you to do one more question to prove me that you are the real MVP. 


Second Example:  

 
First thing you do is you take out the constant with the opposite order of operations. Since its -1, you want to do +1. And since you did it to one side, you want to balance it on the other side with a +1 too. It should be looking something like this:
Now, you have taken out the constant and you have balanced out your equation. Next thing you want to do is you want to isolate the variable. Solve this like a one step equation. Use the opposite order of operation to isolate the variable. It should look something like this:

Now that you have isolated your variable, you got to your answer! Eyyyyyyy! You did it! You proved yourself, you are the true MVP! Good job!
