    Once your students have a solid foundation, what next? introducing simple equations. Not all algebraic equations on the test will be as easy as x + 7 = 12. Test will include equations that measure other math skills, such as x - 1 / 4 = 1 / 3.

    Building on Your Foundation: Next Steps

    Once your students have a solid foundation, what next?

    Simple Equations
    Now that your students have a solid foundation, you can introduce simple equations such as x + 7 = 12 They will hopefully understand why you subtract 7 from 12 to solve for x Stick with one-step equations until they master the concept of solving for x

    Then What?
    There are a few directions you can go once your students can solve basic equations.

    Keep in Mind
    Not all algebraic equations on the GED test will be as easy as x + 7 = 12.
    The test will include equations that measure other math skills, such as x = 1/3.

    Direction 1
    Include the following in equations:
    Fractions Decimals Integers (positive/negative numbers) Square Roots
    This reinforces algebraic thinking along with working with fractions, decimals, etc.

    Direction 2
    Introduce Multi-Step Equations 3y + 7 = 28 4a = 2a + 14

    7b 6 = 4b + 3
