What is solution to this system of equations? 
2x + 4y = 2/3 
3x - 5y = -10 

Maybe we can make it into a system that you
already know how to find the solution to.

Clear the first one of its fraction by
multiplying it thru by the LCD of 3. 

(3)·2x + (3)·4y = (3)·2/3

   6x  +   12y  = (3)·2/3

   6x  +   12y  =    2

Now you have this system with no fractions

6x + 12y =   2
3x -  5y = -10

Can you solve that system by elimination?
If not post again and ask how to solve it.
Its solution is this:  (x,y) = (-5/3, 1)
