The most basic way to decompose a fraction is to break it into unit fractions which is when the numerator (the top number) is 1. 5/8 is the same as the unit fraction 1/8 five times
Answer:
-2/3 or 2/-3 ( either one is correct)
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Pick one the points to start with
2. Move either three to the left (if you are starting with x) or move down twice (if you are starting with y)
3. Move up twice (if starting with x) or move three to the right (if starting with y)
4. write the answer with the y at the top and x on the bottom
Let's simplify first
10x divided by 5 = 2x
Add 2x on 3 an you'll have 6x
And now you just combine like terms
which is x + 6x = 7x
So there's your answer 7x
