Each student wrote a two-step equation. Peter wrote the equation 6x − 2 = 11, and Andres wrote the equation 24x − 8 = 44. The teacher looked at their equations and asked them to compare them. Complete the description of one way in which the equations are similar.
They are essentially the same equation. Andre's equation is the same as Peter's, just all the numbers are multiplied by 4. Both equations have the same answer, which is 13/6, or 2.167.
