Simplify 6/7c - 5/9d - 1/2c + 1/3d

1 answer

To simplify the expression 6/7c - 5/9d - 1/2c + 1/3d, we need to combine like terms.

First, let's combine the like terms with c:
6/7c - 1/2c = (12/14c - 7/14c) = (5/14c).

Next, let's combine the like terms with d:
-5/9d + 1/3d = (-15/27d + 9/27d) = (-6/27d) = (-2/9d).

Finally, the simplified expression is:
5/14c - 2/9d.
