Question

Just help with simple fractions!

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 7x+7 }{ 3 }= 5-\frac{ x+2 }{ 7 }\]

Answer 2

My question is when you multiple 7 to both sides do you multiply the 5 as well?

Answer 3

Woops that 7x+7 is x+1 my mad.

Answer 4

Yea but when you multiply 7 to get rid of the fraction do you just multiple the left side or include the 5?

Answer 5

I would suggest isolating the fractions

Answer 6

Why even multiply 7? Cut the nonsense and just cross multiply.

Answer 7

So (7x+7)/3 + (x+2)/7

Answer 8

Make the denominators equal

Answer 9

Didnt know u could cross multiply if they were on opposite sides
