You can put this solution on YOUR website!
what you need to do is to first isolate \"y\" on one side:
\n" ); document.write( "y-\"3%2F4\"=\"5%2F6\" <--add \"3%2F4\" to both sides to isolate the variable \"y\"
\n" ); document.write( "y-\"3%2F4\"+\"3%2F4\"=\"5%2F6\"+\"3%2F4\"
\n" ); document.write( "y=\"5%2F6\"+\"3%2F4\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the denominators are not the same. You need to find the least common multiple for both 6 and 4 is 12.
\n" ); document.write( "What do you do to 6 to get to 12? multiply by 2
\n" ); document.write( "what do you do to 4 to get to 12? multiply by 3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "y=\"5%2F6\"\"%282%2F2%29\"+\"3%2F4\"\"%283%2F3%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "y=\"10%2F12\"+\"9%2F12\"
\n" ); document.write( "y=\"19%2F12\"
\n" ); document.write( "y=1 \"7%2F12\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
