Question 138895: It asks to solve equations with fractional coefficients is to multiply both sides of the equation by the LCD of the denominators.
2x/7+3x/2=25/7
The answer I got for this was 25/17
Obviously it's the wrong answer, I am just confused on what I did wrong!
Please help Thank You=)

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
2x/7+3x/2=25/7

Multiply thru by 14 to get:
4x + 21x = 50
25x = 50
x = 2
