You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"6%2F5\"$ + $\"3%2F%282x%29\"$ = $\"7%2F%2815%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Find a common denominator and multiply equation by that. 30x would do the job:
\n" ); document.write( "30x* $\"6%2F5\"$ + 30x* $\"3%2F%282x%29\"$ = 30x* $\"7%2F%2815%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Cancel out the denominators and you have
\n" ); document.write( "6x(6) + 15(3) = 2x(7)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "36x + 45 = 14x
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "36x - 14x = - 45
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "22x = -45
\n" ); document.write( "x = $\"-45%2F22\"$
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Checked solution using a calc:
\n" ); document.write( "(6/5) + (3/(2(-45/22))) = .466667
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "(7/15) = .466667; confirms our solution \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
