Infinitely many ways! 
Suppose you have the fraction 2/d.

<span>Pick </span>any<span> pair of integers a and b where b ≠ 0.</span>
Then 2b-ad is and integer, as is bd so that (2b - ad)/bd is a fraction.

Consider the fractions a/b and (2b - ad)/bd

<span>Their sum is </span>
a/b + (2b-ad)/bd = ad/bd + (2b-ad)/bd = 2b/bd = 2/d - as required.

<span>Since a and b were chosen arbitrarily, there are infinitely many possible answers to the question.</span>

What is the solution to the system of equations y23x3 x 2
bija089 [108]

The Solution for the given system of equations is (-2) and (\frac{5}{3}).

The given are linear equations as follow:
y = \frac{2}{3}x + 3              .. ... ...(1)
and x  = -2.          .. .... ...(2)

We already know the first part of the solution (x) which is -2.  We can find the other part (y) by putting the value of equation (2) in equation (1).

By putting the values of x in equation (1), we get

y = (\frac{2}{3})(-2) + 3
y = \frac{-4}{3} + 3

Taking the L. C. M of denominators which will be '3', we get:

y = \frac{-4 + 9}{3}

y = \frac{5}{3}

So the second part (y) of the solution of the given equation is \frac{5}{3}.

Hence, the overall solution to the given system of equation is (-2, \frac{5}{3}).
