16/3w+6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
how did you get that answer?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
9/3w+6+7/3w
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so you would multiply the first problems by 3?
to get the 9 /3w+6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what do you mean?

isnt that how you got 9/3w+6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3/w extend with 3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You need a common denominator of 3w(w + 6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Multiply the first fraction by 3w/3w which would equal
3(3w) = 9w over 3w(w + 6)

Multiply the second fraction by (w + 6)/(w + 6)
7(w + 6)/ 3w(w + 6) = 7w + 42 over 3w(w + 6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yes so easy
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Now you have a common denominator
9w + 7w + 42
-------- -----------
3w(w + 6) 3w(w + 6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Add the top
16w + 42
---------
3w(w + 6)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
can you simplify that answer?

resoult will be the same
OpenStudy (anonymous):
You could take out a 2
2(8w + 21)
---------
3w(w + 6)
But that is as far as you can go.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok thanks so much for the help
