Balance Algebra Tiles Addition/Multiplication Equations Google Slides Activity
This Google Slides Activity includes 15 unique slides that involve maintaining the balance on the scale in order to solve for a variable, x. The students will start first by taking away tiles that represent a value of "1" each on both sides in order to isolate x and solve for its value. They then will be presented with more than one x and will need to find what balances one x in order to solve. Finally, they will be required to remove several "1" tiles and then also remove multiple x tiles i
