Trying to solve an equation with variables on both sides of the equation? Figure out how to get those variables together and solve the equation with this tutorial!
How Do You Find Missing Measurements of Similar Figures Using a Proportion?

Trying to find a missing measurement on similar figures? Make ratios from corresponding sides and set up a proportion! Solve the proportion to get your missing measurement. Figure out how to do all that by watching this tutorial!
How Do You Solve a Formula For a Variable?

So you're working on a math problem and you have the correct formula. Great! But the variable you need to solve for is not by itself in the formula. Not so great. Don't worry! In this tutorial, you'll learn how to solve a formula for the variable you want!
What are Similar Figures?

Looking at two figures that are the same shape and have the same angle measurements? You have similar figures! Learn all about it in this tutorial!
What is a Literal Equation?

A literal equation is an equation where variables represent known values. Literal equations allow use to represent things like distance, time, interest, and slope as variables in an equation. Using variables instead of words is a real time-saver! Learn about literal equations with this tutorial.
How Do You Solve an OR Compound Inequality and Graph It On a Number Line?

Trying to solve a compound inequality? No problem! This tutorial will take you through the process of splitting the compound inequality into two inequalities. Then you'll see how to solve those inequalities, write the answer in set builder notation, and graph the solution on a number line.
What Does It Mean When an Inequality is a Contradiction or Has No Solution?

Can an inequality have no solution? You bet it can! An inequality has no solution will always give you a contradiction, no matter what value you plug in for the variable. Watch this tutorial, and then try to make your own inequality with no solution!
How Do You Solve an Equation with Variables on Both Sides?

Trying to solve an equation with variables on both sides of the equal sign? Figure out how to get those variables together and find the answer with this tutorial!
How Do You Solve a Multi-Step Equation with Fractions by Multiplying Away the Fraction?

Trying to solve an equation involving a fraction? Just multiply the fraction away and then perform the order of operations in reverse! See how in this tutorial.
How Do You Solve a Multi-Step Equation Using the Distributive Property?

Trying to solve an equation where you see the same variable more than once? Figure out how to get those variables together and solve the equation with this tutorial!
How Do You Solve a Proportion Using Cross Products?

Want to solve a percent proportion? Just use the means extremes property of proportions to cross multiply! Solve for the variable, and you have your answer! Learn how with this tutorial.
How Do You Solve an Inequality With Variables on Both Sides?

Solving an inequality for a variable? Just perform the order of operations in reverse! Don't forget that if you multiply or divide by a negative number, you MUST flip the sign of the inequality! That's one of the big differences between solving equalities and solving inequalities.
How Do You Solve an AND Compound Inequality and Graph It On a Number Line?
