Hello,
\n" ); document.write( "Let's rewrite this 1/5+3yequals5y-17/25 as:
\n" ); document.write( "1/5+3y=5y-17/25
\n" ); document.write( "Now multiply by 25 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "5+75y=125y-17
\n" ); document.write( "Subtract 75 and add 17 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "50y=22
\n" ); document.write( "Divide by 50 to get:
\n" ); document.write( "y=22/50 or 11/25
\n" ); document.write( "Make sense?
