Where are the radicals here? I do not see them? I know it's hard to type them, but could you please specify, maybe with parenthesis?
Answered by Maxine
That is how it is shown in my math book
Answered by Irving
There aren't any radicals in this problem then. This problem alone though is a pain itself. Firstly, since both fractions are negative on each side, you can eliminate them and reorder so you have (2/3+27 / 1/3+27)

Then, I would suggest multiplying both sides of the fraction by the denominator's conjugate.

This should net you a fraction divided by a fraction, and you can reorder them by using the reciprocal of the denominator fraction, which allows you to now multiply the two fractions.

Do you need me to explain with the numbers, or do you think you got it?

I think I still need a little more help. I want to make sure that I fully understand this, so I won't have any issues with the other problems
