The least common denominator would be 2x^2
that is because you would have to multiply the first fraction by 2x
but you can't just somehow simplify 2x^2, it wouldn't be right
4/x * -4/2x^2
2x*4/(2x*x) * -4/2x^2
8x /2x^2 * -4/2x^2
Then you would complete it
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Red:black = 1:1
Red cards = x
Black cards =x
x + x = 48
2x = 48
x = 48/2
x = 24
No. of red cards = 24
No of black cards = 24
Now 8 red cards are removed
So, No. of red cards = 24 - 8 =16
Red: Black = 16:24

Red: Black = 2:3
Answer:
a lot of different answers
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is a) because its the numerator is bigger than the denominator
-2x + 8 = -4x + 1
- 1 -2x
7 = -6x
—
-6x
7/-6 or -7/6
