Answer:

Division property

Step-by-step explanation:

The property which states that we can divide both side of the equation by the same non-zero number is called the division property of equality.

The goal of dividing an equation is to isolate the unknown variable on one side.

For example, let the equation be:

2×x=10

Since the unknown variable x is being multiplied by the number 2, to isolate the variable an inverse operation needs to be applied - division:

2×x÷2=10÷2

Careful! Never forget to write the same operation on both sides of the equation! When doing so, the solution of the equation stays the same, i.e. we get an equivalent equation.
