Lesson 3.1Properties of Multiplication and Objectives Division Solve multiplication and division equations. Rearrange formulas to solve for a given variable. Stephen is an electronics technician. He knows the current and resistance specifications for a particular computer circuit, but not the voltage. To find the voltage, he uses Ohm’s Law, which is: V I • R. In this equation, V represents the voltage, I represents the current, and R represents the electrical resistance. To find the voltage, Stephen can multiply the measured values of the current by the resistance. Suppose Stephen is able to measure the voltage V and the current I, but needs to calculate the resistance R of the circuit. How can he solve Ohm's Law for the resistance R?

Critical Thinking Why do you choose the coefficient of the variable as the divisor when you are solving a multiplication equation? The variable is isolated on one side of the equal sign. 3.1 Properties of Multiplication and Division 143 Example 4 Finding the Degrees in a Triangle A sheet metal worker is making a sign in the shape of an equilateral triangle. How many degrees are in each angle of the triangle? Solution It usually helps to draw a picture when solving geometry problems. x x x Equilateral Triangle The sum of the angle measures of a triangle is 180°. Let x represent each angle measure. Because an equilateral triangle has three angles with equal measures, you can write the following equation: 3x 180 x 60 SW7216/Cord Algebra Figure 4.12.TA Thus, each angle is 60°. Multiplication Property of Equality The basic property of equality for solving division equations is the Multiplication Property of Equality.
