On the post below is how to do the fractions I wanted to show you.

OpenStudy (7thgrader):

\(\normalsized\scr\color{blue}{please?}\) i copied and pasted this

OpenStudy (7thgrader):

\textcolor{blue}{isthisright}

OpenStudy (7thgrader):

FF6600

OpenStudy (7thgrader):

\textcolor{FF6600}{isthisright}

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

you have to put this in between teh words ~and you need to finish it like }\) and start it like \(\

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

i will do it now

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

\(\color{#FF6600}{IS~this~right?}\)

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

you also have to put a # sign before the colour code

OpenStudy (7thgrader):

\textcolor{#FF6600}\(\isthisright}\)

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

you didnt start it right, you need to start it like \(\ then you put color in with no spaces the the {# and then the color code tehn }Your~text~here}\)

OpenStudy (7thgrader):

\textcolor{#FF6600}\(\is~this~right}\)

OpenStudy (k_lynn):

Here is how to do the fractions like you wanted... \(\sf \huge \color{aqua}{Step 1}\) Okay first off you gotta type a code. To start the code you type \(\sf \large \color{magenta}{\backslash (}\) \(\sf \huge \color{aqua}{Step 2}\) After you type \(\sf \large \color{magenta}{\backslash (}\) you have to start typing the fraction code. The fraction code is this \(\sf \normalsize \color{aqa}{ \backslash frac }\){ }{ } The first { } is the numerator of the fraction, and the second { } is the denominator of the fraction. Type what you need. Say I wanted to make this fraction.. \(\sf \large \frac{12 - 6 x 4}{3 x 5}\) I would type \(\sf \large 12 - 6 x 4\) in the middle of the first { } and then type \(\sf \large 3 x 5\) in the middle of the second { }. \(\sf \huge \color{aqua}{Step 3}\) Your code should look like this now, \(\backslash (\)\frac{12 - 6 x 4}{3 x 5} After you have that code typed then you finish off the code by typing \(\backslash )\) So now your code should look like this \(\sf \normalsize \backslash (\) \(\sf \backslash frac\){12 - 6 x 4}{3 x 5} \(\backslash )\) \(\sf \huge \color{aqua}{Step 4}\) After you have finished it should look like this! \(\frac{12 - 6x4}{3x5}\) (To make it look better type \sf before you type \frac like so \(\sf \backslash (\backslash sf~~\backslash frac\) It will look like this if you add \sf \(\sf \frac{12 - 6x4}{3x5}\)

this is confusing
