Multiply the common denominators
4/5(3/3)-1/3
4/5(3/3)-1/3(5/5)
4*3/15 - 1*5/15
4*3 - (1*5)/15

7/15

Hey there!

You have to find a common denominator. That is 15. So multiply 4/5 by 3 on the bottom and top to get 12/15. Multiply 1/3 by 5 to get 5/15. The equation is now 12/15-5/15. 12-5=7. You don’t change the denominator though, so the answer would be 7/15.

I hope this helps!

If you have multiple equations with multiple variables, you can either do clever substitutions, or turn it into a matrix on which you can perform linear combinations or multiplications (Gauss elimination)

1  1   1  1
2  1  -1  8
1 -1   1  -5

(note how the above 3 rows represent the 3 equations, just got rid of the variables, plus sign and equals sign)

subtract row1 from row3, that eliminates x and z from row 3.

1  1   1  1
2  1  -1  8
0 -2   0  -6

divide row3 by -2, that will give y a factor of 1

1  1   1  1
2  1  -1  8
0 1   0  3

The last row now says y=3
