Divide both Sides

What: Divide both sides of == by the same expression. Why: Such side-wise division is an essential computation for solving equations. Time to Complete: 3 hours.

eq = (x - 3 == 17*y);

lhs = eq.left / 17; 
rhs = eq.right /17;

eq2 = (lhs == rhs);

show eq2;

save as lhsrhs;

Output

"eq2" → (-3 + x)/17 == y
