iam dumb

[maiden topaz]

multiply and divide both sides by things until you get no fractions

[covert hatch]

Yeah I'll leave this to you

[tropic acorn]

i devide by 2

[maiden topaz]

by the way what is this

is this supposed to be a 2

[tropic acorn]

yea

[maiden topaz]

this too?

[tropic acorn]

doesnt it look like a 2?😖😢

yea

look it aint that bad

[maiden topaz]

sure

so now you have $4 = \frac{x}{x + 3}\cdot 10$

[hot bluff]

zfnQRZJT (not anemic)

[tropic acorn]

indeed

[maiden topaz]

how would you remove the fraction

[tropic acorn]

wait no

[maiden topaz]

like i said

[tropic acorn]

shouldnt it be *5

[maiden topaz]

no

ab/2 isn't

(a/2)*(b/2)

[tropic acorn]

damn

[maiden topaz]

.

[tropic acorn]

english not my main langauge

w8 1 min

the x/x+3?

[maiden topaz]

yes

you want no division

only multiplication

[tropic acorn]

u multiply everything with x+3?

[maiden topaz]

exactly

yes

[tropic acorn]

let me do it on paper

gimme a sec

uh

4x+12=2x+3*10x+3?

[maiden topaz]

well

when you multiply the right

you just get 10x

[tropic acorn]

but why?

[maiden topaz]

because

it cancels out

10x(x+3)/(x+3)

[old crow]

agree

[tropic acorn]

get it

i just forgot about the /

so now i devide more

[maiden topaz]

no

what's the equation you got

[tropic acorn]

x+12=2x+3*10

[maiden topaz]

uh no

[maiden topaz]

taking this

multiply the left by x + 3:

4x + 12

the right by x + 3:

10x

[tropic acorn]

got you

[maiden topaz]

so do you know what to do now

4x + 12 = 10x

[tropic acorn]

let me solve on paper

1 moment

that sucks

12=10x/4x

[maiden topaz]

no

you don't divide

subtract

[tropic acorn]

okay

[maiden topaz]

4x - 4x + 12 = 10x - 4x

[tropic acorn]

i might be stupid

no i truly get it now

[maiden topaz]

ah

[tropic acorn]

12=6x

x=2

o my

[maiden topaz]

yep

and just a word of caution

[tropic acorn]

u will thing i am braindead

[maiden topaz]

if you ever do the multiplication thing

you need to check, once you get the answer,

that you weren't multiplying by 0

in this case, you multiplied by (x + 3)

which is 5

so it's fine

[tropic acorn]

oh yea right

am laughing so hard rn

bc its so basic when they show it to you

thank you

[maiden topaz]

yw

[tropic acorn]

its 6 am nobody is up and i really couldnt solve this shit

do we need to close this channel or my dumbness will remain forever

[maiden topaz]

you can do +close

the bot isnt here so that might not work

[tropic acorn]

i saw that i can just delete the message

+close
