Description

Hello Math Teachers! Are you working on combining like terms and using the distributive property to simplify expressions? Then these 40 questions are for you! Questions contain variables and emphasize adding and subtracting like terms with both positive and negative numbers. Harder questions include using distributive property then combining like terms to help students prepare for solving multi-step equations.

Appropriate as a review to strengthen these essential skills as homework or a classwork activity with Pre-Algebra students.

Two-sided worksheet prints easily from PDF. Digital optional available using Easel.

Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + ๐˜น) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3๐˜น; apply the distributive property to the expression 24๐˜น + 18๐˜บ to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4๐˜น + 3๐˜บ); apply properties of operations to ๐˜บ + ๐˜บ + ๐˜บ to produce the equivalent expression 3๐˜บ.
Apply properties of operations as strategies to add, subtract, factor, and expand linear expressions with rational coefficients.
Solve linear equations with rational number coefficients, including equations whose solutions require expanding expressions using the distributive property and collecting like terms.
