Question 908795: What is 12r + 8s divided by 6r - 3s (if you can simplify any further that is. I got to there from
((r/2)+(s/3))/((r/4)-(s/8)) by figuring out that the LCD = 24. Then I multiplied the fractions with the LCD to get the equation: (12r+8s)/(6r-3s). I want to know if you can simplify further or if you can't and if you can can you please tell me how?

Question 910591: Please help me to help my daughter solve this problem, if would be GREAT if you could help explain it as well, I am lost!!
Multiply. Use cross reducing to simplify the expression.
3/4 X 5/7 X 14/15 X 8/9
we think we have an answer but are NOT sure at all.
It would be then written as follows: 1/1 X 1/1 X 2/3 X 4/3 = 8/9 would be the newest answer if we did that correct?
