Pls do

rain sinew
clear perch
#

ok so

clear perch
#

2 nd frac should be 20x + 25

#

ok nvm u fixed line 3

#

so now u need to cross multiply

#

so u have an equation for x

rain sinew
clear perch
#

multiply 24x + 19 by 2

#

then 11 by 10

#

effectively get rid of the fraction

rain sinew
#

ohh that #

#

ok

clear perch
#

by multiplying both sides by something

rain sinew
#

is that right?

#

@clear perch

clear perch
#

Well

#

Sort of

#

But it’s an equation

#

You need to solve it

#

48 x + 38 = 110

rain sinew
#

ok

#

bro im horrible at math

#

how do i find x after that?

#

apparantly the awnser is x = 24/36

#

and i dont have those numbers?

#

no wait

#

its 36/24

#

Ye

#

If I were you

rain sinew
quartz dove
#

Just cross multiply then divide both the denominators

rain sinew
#

but dosnt cross multiplying get rid of the fraction lines?

quartz dove
#

You multiply both the denominators

#

And it will equal the same

#

Idk if this makes sense

#

But Yk like the way the arrows are

#

Where you cross multiply, but then you multiply 2 by 5+x

#

It will just make it look a bit long then you simplify it as it’s the same answer

rain sinew
#

ive gotten past the point of making the demonimnators the same tho
