INTRODUCTION
relations among patterns; and bind one type of pattern to another to yield lasting
mathematical structures. Applications of mathematics use these patterns to " explain "
and predict natural phenomena that fit the patterns[CITATION LYN13 \l 1033 ]. Throughout
the 20th century, mathematics has grown rapidly on many fronts. The rapid growth in
The world is full of information, yet human brains are only capable of processing
a certain amount. Evaluating every single feature of each situation or decision, one would
never get anything done. In order to manage the great amount of information that come
across and speed up the decision-making process, the brain relies on heuristic strategies
to simplify things and lessen the infinite amount of time analyzing every detail [ CITATION

Within mathematics curricula, algebra has been widely recognized as one of the
most difficult topics, which leads to learning difficulties worldwide (Al Jupri et al.,
Linear Equation is one of the core topic in algebra. The importance of this topic is
viewed by Huntley and Terrel (2014) as a gauge for students’ algebraic proficiency in
school. The need for algebraic proficiency is essential since it embraces the manipulation
of all basic formulas needed for various applications in different fields of specialization.
The formula for length, perimeter, volume, area, unit conversion, velocity, force, simple
interest etc. which can be viewed in linear form is a must for engineering, medicine,
commerce, information and technology, education and many others fields of work.
numbers properties of equality are equally important. These are vital tools in
manipulating or reducing linear equations to meet the desired output. The process of
eliminating the constant as part of the reduction method in solving linear equations have
2x + 5 = 25
2x + 5 – 5 = 25 – 5
And reduced the equation to 2x = 20 using addition property of equality together with
using multiplication property of equality together with the multiplicative inverse property
