Answer 2

So you have \[\frac{\frac{3}{x} + \frac{2}{y}}{\frac{3}{x} - \frac{2}{y}} = \frac{2y - 3x}{2y + 3x}\]

Answer 3

yes the first part is the question and the for my answer

Answer 4

Yes, I think you are very close, but you may have switched numbers somewhere. Also, it might be simplified more but I have to look into it :)

Answer 5

ok thanks

Answer 6

If you multiply nominator and denominator by x, you get?

Answer 7

i get 3 becuase the x cancels out

Answer 8

That is a logical first step, as fractions in fractions look ugly.
Correct, but remember, to keep the fraction the same you need to multiply every factor with x:
\[x\left(\frac{\frac{3}{x} + \frac{2}{y}}{\frac{3}{x} - \frac{2}{y}}\right)\]

Answer 9

So top and bottom:\[\frac{x\left(\frac{3}{x} + \frac{2}{y}\right)}{x\left(\frac{3}{x} - \frac{2}{y}\right)}\]
