Defining the Division Property of Equality

In a business setting, you might use the equation 12x = 144 to find the cost of a single inventory item (x). To justify dividing both sides of the equation by 12, you use the Division Property of Equality. State the formal definition of this property using the variables a, b, and c, and identify the specific numerical restriction placed on the divisor (c).
