"If you add the same number to both sides of an equation, the
equality is still true."
In simpler terms, if you have an equation like "a = b," you can
add the same number to both sides of the equation, and it will
still be true.

"If you subtract the same number from both sides of an
equation, the equality is still true."
If a = b, then a - c = b - c.

for example, if you have the equation 7 = 7, you can
subtract 4 from both sides:
7-4=7-4

"If you multiply both sides of an equation by the same non-
zero number, the equality still holds."
In simpler terms, if you have an equation like "a = b," you can
multiply both sides by the same non-zero number, and the
equation remains true. Mathematically, it can be expressed
as:
If a = b, and c is a non-zero number, then a * c = b * c.
