To find: Why they can be considered the same property and Which one do you think is easier to use.
Answer to Problem 78HP
The Multiplication Property of Equality and the Division Property of Equality are considered as same.
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Line1: Consider the Multiplication Property of Equality and the Division Property of Equality.
Calculation:
Consider, the explanation is to be done for the Multiplication Property of Equality and the Division Property of Equality as same.
Multiplication Property of Equality is the property that allows one multiply the same quantity by both sides of an equation.
Division Property of Equality is the property that allows one to divide the same quantity by both sides of an equation. Dividing by a number is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal, so the same rules would be apply.
Example,
And, the number is multiplied by the reciprocal,
Therefore, the Multiplication Property of Equality and the Division Property of Equality are considered as same.
And, multiplication property is easier than Division Propert.
