PLEASE HELP!!! How is the process for solving multiplication and division one-step equations like solving one-step addition and subtraction equations?

all of these only require a single operation before you get x alone. for example:

x - 2 = 6
compared with
2x = 6

for the first one, you add two and get x = 8. for the second one, you divide by 2 and get x = 3. they're both a single step, as the name "one-step" equations tells you, and you only have to divide, multiply, add, or subtract one value.
