What's the Multiplication Property of Equality?

To preserve an equality, what you do to one side of the equality must be done to the other side of the equality
'a', 'b', and 'c' are variables representing numbers here
'a = b' is an equality

1. An equality is just two algebraic expressions combined by an equal sign
2. An algebraic expression is a properly-formed combination of mathematical symbols that does not contain an equality sign

3. Remember that variables can represent numbers, so you can substitute "variable" for "number" here and it would mean the same thing
1. 'a', 'b', and 'c' are just variables representing numbers here
2. Multiplying by 'c' is one of many operations that could have been performed on the equality
