Q16 of 42 Page 34

If we multiply or divide both sides of a linear equation with a non-zero number, then the solution of the linear equation:

Consider an equation x = y


if it is multiplied by a non-zero number, it gets cancelled. Therefore the linear equations remains the same.


ax = ay


Hence A is the correct option.
