6.EE.B.7: Solve real-world and mathematical problems by writing and solving equations of the form x + p = q and px = q for cases in which p, q and x are all nonnegative rational numbers.

What you'll learn

  1. Write an equation of the form x + p = q or px = q to represent a real-world or mathematical problem involving nonnegative rational numbers
  2. Solve equations of the form x + p = q by using the relationship between addition and subtraction (find x = q − p)
  3. Solve equations of the form px = q by using the relationship between multiplication and division (find x = q/p)
  4. Verify solutions by substituting back into the original equation
