OpenStudy (nikato):
15 is wrong
OpenStudy (nikato):
and sure. which one do you need help on correcting?
OpenStudy (madgirlwithabluebox):
Any of them? Im just really confused on what I should do?
OpenStudy (nikato):
well for 4, you were colse. just switch the denominator and numerator of your answer for the correct one. i think you made a minor mistake somewhere

ok. for 7, it was similar to 6. except i arranged the terms in descending order before dividing
OpenStudy (nikato):
Like this

Oh ohkay
OpenStudy (nikato):
its like elementary long division where you have to carry stuff and the remainders

ok. now lets do 9. how did you do that? did you remember to find the common denomniator first?
OpenStudy (madgirlwithabluebox):
uhhh no
OpenStudy (madgirlwithabluebox):
Is it the 3rd answer?
OpenStudy (nikato):
no. its A.
the first thing is to find their common denominator which is (x-3)(x-2). do you know how to find it?
OpenStudy (madgirlwithabluebox):
no.. can you explain to me?

well... theres actually nothing much to explain. because in order to add or subtract two fractions, they must first have the same denominator.
since one of the denominator is x-3 and the other is x-2, the closest thing they have in common would just be (x-3)(x-2)
OpenStudy (nikato):
or with something more simple, lets say you have 1/3 and 4/15. their common denominator would be 15. because 3x5=15 and 15x1=15. 3 and 15 can easily be multiplied by a number to get 15
