An equation is a mathematical statement that two expressions are equal. The solution of an equation is the value that when substituted for the variable makes the equation a true statement.

Example: 3x + 5 = 14 is an equation, in which 3x+5 and 14 are two expressions separated by an ‘’equal’’ sign.

Step 1: Simplify each side of the equation by removing parenthesis and combining the like terms.

Step 2: Use addition or subtraction to isolate the variable term on one side (preferably in the left side).

Step 3: Use Multiplication or Division to solve for the variable.

$2x+3=11$.

Now solving the equation$2x+3=11$with proper steps

$\begin{array}{l}2x+3=11\\ 2x+3−3=11−3\text{ â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰}\left[\text{ â¶Ä‰S³Ü²ú³Ù°ù²¹³¦³Ù â¶Ä‰3 â¶Ä‰f°ù´Ç³¾â€‰â¶Ä‰b´Ç³Ù³ó â¶Ä‰s¾±»å±ð²õ â¶Ä‰}\right]\\ 2x\text{ â¶Ä‰}=\text{ â¶Ä‰}8\text{ â¶Ä‰}\\ \frac{2x}{2}\text{ â¶Ä‰}=\text{ â¶Ä‰}\frac{8}{2}\text{ â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰}\left[\text{ â¶Ä‰Divide â¶Ä‰oth â¶Ä‰sides â¶Ä‰by â¶Ä‰}2\text{ â¶Ä‰}\right]\\ x\text{ â¶Ä‰}=\text{ â¶Ä‰}4\text{ â¶Ä‰}\end{array}$

The solution of the equation is$x\text{ â¶Ä‰}=\text{ â¶Ä‰}4\text{ â¶Ä‰}$
