Algebra tiles help make math visual for students, and paper algebra tiles take it a step further because we can cut them into fractions. In this post are a few short cut paper algebra tiles videos for solving 1-step and 2-step equations that include when x is a fraction.
This first equation is a simple 1-step equation where x is being divided by 4.
Next up is another 1-step equation where the coefficient of x is a negative fraction.
In this 1-step video, x ends up being a fraction. We can show this by cutting the tiles to evenly distribute it.
Last is a 2-step equation where x is a fraction and the coefficient of x is negative.
