You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If the equation is:
7%2F%288w%29=4%2F%288w%29%2B6%2F%288w%29
multiply through by 8w to eliminate denominators
7 = 4+6
.
That is not true.
.
If the equation is:
%287%2F8%29w=%284%2F8%29w%2B%286%2F8%29w
multiply through by 8 to eliminate denominators
7w = 4w+6w
.
That is not true.
.
So, there is no solution either way.
