Solving One Step Equations Explained – Step by Step Word Problem Practice

Learn how to solve one-step equations using real-world word problems in this clear, step-by-step video lesson. We cover problems involving subtraction, multiplication, and division to help you understand how to isolate the variable and apply inverse operations effectively.

Each problem is explained thoroughly to show how each step follows logically from the previous one. This video is aligned with the Common Core Standards HSA.REI.A.1 and HSA.REI.B.3, which focus on justifying solution steps and solving linear equations in one variable.

This lesson is ideal for middle school and high school students, homeschoolers, and anyone who wants to strengthen their algebra skills. Whether you’re preparing for a test or reviewing key concepts, this video provides practical examples and helpful explanations.

Standards Covered:

HSA.REI.A.1 – Explain each step in solving a simple equation, starting from the assumption that the original equation has a solution.

HSA.REI.B.3 – Solve linear equations and inequalities in one variable, including equations with coefficients represented by letters.
