DETAILED EXPLANATION

Look at chips=highlight_red%28+72+%29%2A5%2Fhighlight_red%28+2+%29.
Factors 72 and 2 have greatest common factor (GCF) of 2. Reducing fraction.
It becomes chips=highlight_green%28+36+%29%2A5%2Fhighlight_green%28+1+%29.
Look at chips=highlight_red%28+36+%29%2Ahighlight_red%28+5+%29%2F1.
Multiplied numerator integers
It becomes chips=highlight_green%28+180+%29%2F1.
Look at chips=180%2Fhighlight_red%28+1+%29.
Remove extraneous '1' from product highlight_red%28+1%2F1+%29
It becomes chips=180.
Look at chips=highlight_red%28+180+%29.
Moved these terms to the left highlight_green%28+-180+%29
It becomes chips-highlight_green%28+180+%29=0.
Look at highlight_red%28+chips-180+%29=0.
Solved linear equation highlight_red%28+chips-180=0+%29 equivalent to chips-180 =0
It becomes highlight_green%28+0+%29=0.
Result: 0=0
This is an equation! Solutions: chips=180.

Universal Simplifier and Solver

Welcome to Graphical Universal Mathematical Expression Simplifier and Algebra Solver (GUMESS).
It solves most middle school algebra equations and simplifies expressions, and it SHOWS ALL WORK. It is free to use.

Enter expression to be simplified, or equation to be solved.
I will figure out if what you typed is an equation.

Enter Expression ==>     
Examples: x^2-2x=-1, 3x-x-x+a-a=5, (x^2-1)/(x+1), 2x-(x+x)


Single letter variables only, no functions, xy means x*y, x(x-1) means x*(x-1), sin(x) means s*i*n*(x)


You must use the "*" (star) symbol for all multiplications! x(x+1) is WRONG! It means a function x of x-1. x*(x-1) is right. Use the ^ (caret) for exponentiation. x^2 means x squared. x/2y means x%2F2y
