Multiply the equation by a power of 10 to write an equivalnet equation with integers coefficients.

6.2x + 4.5 = 3.8x+ 7.9

2 answers

Wouldn't that just be

62x + 45 = 38x + 79 ??

Am I missing something here?
Integer coeffecients means numbers with no decimal part. Recall that an equation is still valid if you multiply both sides by the same value. For the coeffecients of X (6.2 on the left and 3.8 on the right) what would be required to change those to 62 and 38 respectively?
