Solving Equations with Integers on a Balance Scale: Algebra Balance with Integers
Algebra Balance with Integers is a no-prep digital tool for solving equations with negative numbers: bags, tiles and red −1 balloons on a balance scale, zero pairs, and negative answers, from x + 7 = 3 to x on both sides and story problems.
Algebra Balance : Solving Building Writing Equations with a Balance Scale
Algebra Balance is a no-prep digital tool for solving equations: mystery bags, 1 tiles and −1 balloons sit on a balance scale, and students take away, add, divide or multiply both sides until one bag is alone, from x + 4 = 9 and x − 4 = 5 to x on both sides and story problems.
Equations and Inequalities – Balance the scales
Combining letters with numbers and mathematical operations is new and exciting for students starting with basic operations. I find that many students see these equations as puzzles and love to solve them. As the equations get more complicated, however, including fractions, exponents, and more, many students start getting frustrated. Algebra …
