multiply through by the LCD (lowest common denominator)
... in this case , 15
How do you write an equation with two fractions into standard form?
(2/5)x + (1/3)y - 2=0
2 answers
The standard form is
Ax + By = C
So, yours can be done as
(2/5)x + (1/3)y = 2
Next, clear the fractions by multiplying through by LCM(3,5)=15 and you have
6x + 5y = 30
Ax + By = C
So, yours can be done as
(2/5)x + (1/3)y = 2
Next, clear the fractions by multiplying through by LCM(3,5)=15 and you have
6x + 5y = 30
