♡ The Explanation/Step-By-Step ♡
・1/7 = 90/91 + B
Switch sides!
90/91 + B = 1/7
Subtract 90/91 from both sides!
90/91 + B - 90/91 = 1/7 - 90/91
Simplify!
90/91 + B - 90/91 : B
90/91 + B - 90/91
90/91 - 90/91 = 0
= B
Simplify!
1/7 - 90/91 : -11/13
1/7 - 90/91
= 13/91 - 90/91
Combine the fractions!
= 13 - 90 over 91
Subtract the numbers! : 13 - 90 = -77
= -77/91
Apply the fraction rule! : -a/b = -a/b
= -77/91
Cancel the common factor! : 7
= -11/13
B = -11/13
