X - y + x + y = 180
2x = 180
x = 90
2x - 2y = x + y
x = 3y
y = x/3
y = 90/3
y = 30
x - y = 90 - 30 = 60
x + y = 90 + 30 = 120
2x - 2y = 180 - 60 = 120
Change the fractions so they have common denominators. For example. If adding 4/8 + 2/3, a common denominator of the two could be 24. Change both fractions to have a denominator of 24. To do this:
(4/8)×(3/3)= 12/24
(2/3)×(8/8)=16/24
Now that both fractions have denominators of 24, you can simply add the numerators to get your answer. in this case, it would be 28/24
