an equation with more than one operation
Parentheses in an equation tell you that you must perform that operation before any other operations, regardless of what operation that may be.
You cannot write the quotient itself as an equation, but you can express a division operation and use an equation to express that the result of this operation (the quotient) is a specific value. For example, 16/8 =2.
You need to isolate the variable you want to solve for, on one side of the equation. This involves getting rid of everything else. Note that what you do on one side of the equation, you also have to do on the other side. "Getting rid" of everything else basically means doing the inverse of the operation shown. Example: 2x + 3 = 21 You might start by getting rid of the 3. For this, you subtract 3 on both sides. Subtracting 3 is the inverse of the operation shown in the equation, adding 3. 2x + 3 - 3 = 21 - 3 2x = 18 Next, you get rid of the 2. Once again, since in the equation there is a multiplication by 2, you divide by 2 - the inverse operation. In this case, you divide by 2 on each side: 2x/2 = 18/2 (2/2)x = 18/2 x = 9
