Question

What propery is 5(x + 3) = 35, then x + 3 = 7

Answer 1

Property Used is Division Property of Equality

Explanation:

We need to define the property used in solving 5(x + 3) = 35, then x + 3 = 7

The Division Property of Equality states that when we divide both sides of an equation by same non-zero number the two sides remain equal

So, in given question:

5(x+3)=35

Dividing both sides by 5 (Division Property of Equality)

5(x+3)/5=35/5

x+3=7

So, Property Used is Division Property of Equality
