:

Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

5.1   Subtracting a whole from a fraction

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  4  as the denominator :

                     14 • (5x - 24)     14 • (5x - 24) • 4

   14 • (5x - 24) =  ——————————————  =  ——————————————————

                           1                    4          

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole

Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator

Adding fractions that have a common denominator :

5.2       Adding up the two equivalent fractions

Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator

Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:

9 • (x+2) - (14 • (5x-24) • 4)     1362 - 271x

——————————————————————————————  =  ———————————

              4                         4      

Final result :

 1362 - 271x

 ———————————

      4  

=

6(x+1) = 7 (x+5)

6x + 6 = 7x + 35

6x - 7x = 35 - 6

-x = 29

x = -29
