How do you solve equations involving fractions?
You can resolve fractional equations by multiplying each side by the same number that will yield whole numbers on both sides. Where there are fractions on both sides, you can multiply by the Least Common Factor of the two denominators. Example: 3/4 x = 5/8 (times 8) 6 x = 5 x = 5/6
How do you solve for x when multiplying fractions?
You solve just like any other equation: You try to manipulate your equation so that the "x" is alone on the left side, and everything else on the right side.
Solve these equations 4x equals -12?

How do solve two step equations with fractions?
Such as 1/2x + 3/4 = 1/4 - 2x ? Get rid of the fractions unless you like working with fractions: multiply by 4 (the LCD) 2x + 3 = 1 - 8x Get all x terms on one side, constants on the other: 2x + 8x = 1 - 3 Combine: 10x = -2 Divide by 10: x = -2/10 Simplify: x = -1/5
What is the basic rules to solve equations?
The basic rules to solve equations are to isolate the variable on one side of the equation by performing the same operation on both sides. This includes adding or subtracting the same value, multiplying or dividing by the same value, and applying exponent or logarithm rules if necessary. The goal is to simplify the equation until the variable is alone on one side and the solution can be determined.
