Because, well, without them how are you able to add and subtract fractions :D
It is according to the laws of mathematics that you cannot add or subtract fractions that have different denominators to each other. So you need to make your fractions having the same denominator so that they are able to be added or subtracted (hence the equivalent fractions - making the denominators the same are making the fractions equivalent)
Answer:
The original price of a skateboard is $64
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original price of a skateboard
y ----> the new price of a skateboard
we know that
The linear equation that represent this problem is equal to
y=x-15 ----> equation A
y=49 ---> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A and solve for x
49=x-15
Adds 15 both sides
49+15=x
64=x
Rewrite
x=$64
We can't help unless we know what to "rewrite"
