Step 7 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
7.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 12x59
The right denominator is : 100
Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
3 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
5 | 0 | 2 | 2 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 12 | 100 | 300 |
Algebraic Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
x | 59 | 0 | 59 |
Least Common Multiple:
300x59
Calculating Multipliers :
7.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 25
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3x59
Making Equivalent Fractions :
7.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.
For example : 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, y/(y+1)2 and (y2+y)/(y+1)3 are equivalent as well.
To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.
L. Mult. • L. Num. 25 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 300x59 R. Mult. • R. Num. 41 • 3x59 —————————————————— = ————————— L.C.M 300x59
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
7.4 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:
25 - (41 • 3x59) 25 - 123x59
———————————————— = ———————————
300x59 300x59
Equation at the end of step 7 :
25 - 123x59
——————————— = 0
300x59
Step 8 :
When a fraction equals zero :
8.1 When a fraction equals zero ...
Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
25-123x59
————————— • 300x59 = 0 • 300x59
300x59
Now, on the left hand side, the 300x59 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
25-123x59 = 0
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
8.2 Solve : -123x59+25 = 0
Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation :
-123x59 = -25
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 123x59 = 25
Divide both sides of the equation by 123:
x59 = 25/123 = 0.203
x = 59th root of (25/123)
The equation has one real solution
This solution is x = 59th root of ( 0.203) = 0.97336
One solution was found :
x = 59th root of ( 0.203) = 0.97336How did we do?
