I'm not sure if I'm doing this 100% right but here's what I think ... :) You can't have fractions in standard form so let's get rid of them. Put them all on one side of the equation and the constant on the other. \[2/3x + 5/2y = 2\] Give the fractions equal denominators. \[4/6x +15/6y=2\] Get rid of the denominator by multiplying both sides of the equation by six. Then what do you have? :) Hope this helped.
