If the ultimate goal in solving equations is to determine what the variable represents, students must work backwards from what they've been used to doing. After solving a variety of equations together in class, students realized that if a problem states to do one thing, the reverse operation must be done. We talked about this being similar to reversing the PEMDAS order--add and subtract before multiplying and dividing.
