SOLUTION: Solve for "u"
{{{1/u + 5/(u-2) = 4/(u-2)}}}
So far I know I have to find a common denominator so I multiply by "u" or "u-2" and I have 1(u-2)/u(u-2) + 5u/u(u-2)=4u/u(u-2) bu

Question 152602: Solve for "u"
So far I know I have to find a common denominator so I multiply by "u" or "u-2" and I have 1(u-2)/u(u-2) + 5u/u(u-2)=4u/u(u-2) but then I end up with a bunch of u^2 and I am not sure what to do.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! You're definitely on the right track. But you don't even need to leave any denominators when you solve the problem:
