How to solve Grade 6 equations problems

Real problems from these worksheets, solved one step at a time — the same explanations your child sees when practicing online.

  1. Example 1

    Solve: n + 11 = 42

    1. Subtract 11 from both sides: n = 42 − 11 = 31.
    2. Check: 31 + 11 = 42 ✓ So n = 31.

    Answer: 31

  2. Example 2

    Solve: x ÷ 11 = 2

    1. Multiply both sides by 11: x = 2 × 11 = 22.
    2. Check: 22 ÷ 11 = 2 ✓ So x = 22.

    Answer: 22

  3. Example 3

    Solve: 3x + 11 = 17

    1. Subtract 11 from both sides: 3x = 17 − 11 = 6.
    2. Divide both sides by 3: x = 6 ÷ 3 = 2.
    3. Check: 3 × 2 + 11 = 17 ✓ So x = 2.

    Answer: 2
