👉 Learn how to solve a one step equation. An equation is a statement stating that two values are equal. A one step equation is an equation whose solution can be obtained by performing only one step of operation on the equation. To solve a one step addition/subtraction equation, we isolate the variable by using inverse operation to add/subtract the constant term at the side of the variable from both sides of the equation.
