1. Equations With Fractions Lesson 4-6

2. Remember the Process: Isolate the variable Perform the inverse operation on the side with the variable. Perform the same operation on the other side of the equal sign.

3. Example: y + 3 = 11 - 3 = y 8

4. Now with fractions: b - 2 3 = 1 9 + 2 3 =b + 2 3 9 9 x 1 1 x 3 6 9 7

5. Now With Mixed Numbers: c+ 5 4 9 =11 5 6 - 5 4 9 = c - 5 4 9 5 18 x 3 15 x 2 8 18 7 6

6. Check: Substitute the answer in the original equation. c+ 5 4 9 =11 5 6 18 7 6 + 5 4 9 =11 5 6 18 7 6+5 8 = =11 5 6 15 18 11 5 6
