Alright, let's take a look at this problem together.
00:02
5x over 4 plus 1 over 1 half, sorry, equals x minus 1 half.
00:07
So we're going to solve this for x.
00:09
First thing i like to do is i like to get, there's a lot of fractions going on here.
00:12
So i like to get rid of those as much as possible.
00:15
So i'm going to treat this x like it's got a 1 underneath.
00:18
So we have denominators of a 4, a 2, a 1, and a 2.
00:21
So i'm actually going to multiply both sides of my equation by 4, because that is the least common multiple of every 6.
00:31
Single one of these denominators.
00:33
Okay, so let's watch what happens.
00:35
4 times 4 times 5x over 4...
