In general you can multiply through by the LCD

For example solve :-

2/x + 1 / (1+ x) = 11/12

The LCD is 12x(x + 1).

Now we multiply each term by 12x(x + 1)

2*12(x+1) + 12x = 11x(x + 1)

and this is solved in the usual way.

Ryan needs 20 feet of cable. The longest piece on her truck is 18 3/8 feet. How many feet too short is the cable on the truck? *

prisoha [69]

Answer:

1 5/8 too short

Step-by-step explanation:

The cable on the truck is 18 and 3/8 ... to complete the fraction into a whole number we would need 5 more parts in order to complete the entire 8 parts of the fraction. This would make the cable a whole 19 feet. Since Ryan needs 20 ft, this would leave us needing 1 more foot. Therefore, the cable in the truck is

1 5/8 too short
