for the equation, X minus eight equals 24. Subtraction is being performed on the variable to undo the subtraction. Use addition for the equation. X Plus eight equals 24. Addition is being performed on the variable to undo. Addition, use subtraction. The Equation X, divided by eight, equals 24. Division is being performed on the variable to undo division use multiplication and for the equation eight X equals 24. Multiplication is being performed on the bit variable to undo multiplication use division.
