Don't worry hun you're not stupid. so basically the purple pen means the obvious right? it means that those are the numbers that you will be focusing on first. you are going to make sure that you change them to the same bottom # that way you are able to add them at the very end okay? so what we are going to do is find a # that those bottom #s both go into right? and that would be ten. So what you want to do is multiple top and bottom by the same number to get the denominator to 10. (as pictured) then you will bring both equations down for clean space and add them. like this:

Given : A social media website has currently = 1,000 members.

In each month number of members gets triple.

To find: Equation that represents number of members m belongs to site.

Solution: Because we are given, each month the number of members gets triple, that means each month we can multiply by 3 to the number of members of previous month.

For first month, we would multiply 1,000 by 3.

For second month, we would multiply 1,000 by 3 *3.

For second month, we would multiply 1,000 by 3*3*3.

Each month one factor of 3 is being increasing.

We could write those 3's as exponents of 3.

Like $1000*3 = 1000*3^1$
