Solve Equations With the Distributive Property

Practice using the distributive property of multiplication to solve equations with this eighth-grade algebra worksheet! This helpful worksheet begins with an example equation before asking learners to solve nine equations that can be solved by first using the distributive property. To provide a range of practice, the problems start out with variables on one side of the equation before progressing to having variables on both sides of the equation. Mastering these types of equations is an important step in students learning to solve more complex equations in future math classes.
