Question

\frac{1}{x] = \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{4}

Answer 1

\frac{1}{x] = \frac{1}{6} = \frac{1}{4}

Answer 2

1/x = 1/6 + 1/4

Answer 3

ahah

Answer 4

I tried the rule and failed 1 * 4 + 1 * 6/6* 4

Answer 5

10/24 doesn't make much sense

Answer 6

Unless we can simplify it or something

Answer 7

\[\frac{ 1 }{ x } = \frac{ 1 }{ 6 }+\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }\] this?

Answer 8

\[\frac{ 1 * 6 + 1 * 4 }{ 6 * 4 } = \frac{ 10 }{ 24 }\]

Answer 9

However, my book says \[\frac{ 2 + 3 }{ 12 }\]

Answer 10

remember you have 1/x =... not x = ...

Answer 11

So.. I'm just finding the LCD of 10 and 24... Ah.

Answer 12

\[\frac{ 1 }{ x } = \frac{ 1 }{ 6 } + \frac{ 1 }{ 4 } \implies \frac{ 1 }{ x } = \frac{ 10 }{ 24 } \implies \frac{ 24 }{ 10 } = x\]

Answer 13

There we go, the answer should be x=12/5

Answer 14

which is same as 24/10

Answer 15

\\[2\frac{ 2 }{ 5}\][\frac{ 12 }{ 5}\] Since 5 goes into 12 two times with a remainder of 2, I can say

Answer 16

Sure thing
