Question

Kelly tells you that when variables are in the denominator, the equation one over two plus three over x equals three over four becomes unsolvable. Kelly explains, "There is a value for x that makes the denominator zero, and you can't divide by zero." Demonstrate to Kelly how the equation is still solvable and explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

(x/(2x))+((2*3)/(2x))=3/4
(x+6)/2x=3/4
4x+24=6x
24=2x
x=12
