Question

Use multiplying by 1 to find an expression equivalent to 3/14 with a denominator of 14 y.

Answer 1

As a matter of simplification, same/same = 1.

now, "same" could be anything whatsoever, you name it, a whole polynomial, a whole anything whatsoever.

$\bf \cfrac{\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\cfrac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{3}}=\cfrac{100000000}{100000000}=\cfrac{eggs}{eggs}=\cfrac{miles}{miles}=\cfrac{\frac{\quad \sqrt{3}}{\sqrt[5]{17}}\quad }{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt[5]{17}}}=\cfrac{whatever}{whatever}=1$

now, that said, let us use 1 in this case then ... hmmmm we simply need a "y" in the denominator, so we simply multiply the denominator AND numerator by "y", y/y  = 1 btw.

$\bf \cfrac{3}{14}\cdot \cfrac{y}{y}\implies \cfrac{3y}{14y}$
