7x/2-11/4=5 [Multiply each term by the LCD=8]
\n" ); document.write( "(8)(7x/2)-(8)(11/4)=(8)(5)[Cancel wherever possible]
\n" ); document.write( "(4)(7x)-(2)(11)=40
\n" ); document.write( "28x-22=40
\n" ); document.write( "28x=40+22
\n" ); document.write( "28x=62
\n" ); document.write( "x=62/28
\n" ); document.write( "x=31/14
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Check by plugging (x=31/14) back into the original equation:
\n" ); document.write( "7x/2-11/4=5
\n" ); document.write( "7(31/14)/2-11/4=5
\n" ); document.write( "5=5 [checks out]
\n" ); document.write( "
