We begin by interpreting contextual scenarios and representing the relationships using equations with parentheses. The lesson then walks students through solving these equations in four scaffolded ways: modeling with double bar diagrams, modeling with algebra tiles, solving algebraically using the division property of equality, and applying the distributive property. Each method is explained both visually and verbally to support conceptual understanding. After each approach, students are given a guided practice opportunity, followed by a fully explained exemplar solution to reinforce correct reasoning and procedures. This structured lesson helps students build confidence and flexibility when solving two-step equations with parentheses.\n
