An Algebra 1 equation-solving app for ages 12-15 built on a balance scale: equation sides sit as x-tiles and number tiles on two pans, and every operation (+n, -n, x n, / n) applies to both sides by construction. The Learn demo deliberately breaks the balance, restores it, and solves the right way. Twelve graded puzzles run one-step, two-step, and variables-on-both-sides (including a negative solution, x = -6), each with a hint, step counter, and a substitution check line on solving.
