OpenStudy (amistre64):

have you tried a pair of pliers?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

to normalize a fraction; you multiply it by the denominator; everything by the denominator

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can do everything but the fraction idk how to take it off

OpenStudy (amistre64):

(4/3)3y +2(3) = 4(3)y -4(3)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

4y +6 = 12y -12

OpenStudy (amistre64):

lets see; 8y = 18 y = 18/8 = 9/4 = 2.25

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

you check it by using it in the equation 4(9)/3(4)+2=4(9)/4-4 3+2 = 9-4 5=5 .. its good

OpenStudy (anonymous):
