Solving Equations Involving Brackets WORKSHEET DESCRIPTION

This worksheet follows on from Solving Linear Equations (B) but provides equations involving brackets.

Section A presents equations in the form a(bx+c)=d.

Section B extends on section A by including division or fractions in the equations.

Section C then provides questions with the unknown on both sides and a set of brackets on one side.

Section D then extends this to questions with two sets of brackets with unknowns on one side or both sides of the equations.
