What is to solve the given equation? well, i see we have decimals here.
00:04
So the first thing i want to do is get rid of the decimals.
00:07
Well, i noticed that in three of the numbers, our decimal goes to the hundredth place.
00:13
Therefore, i'm going to multiply both sides of our equation by 100.
00:17
Because remember, multiplying by 100 will move the decimal point two places to the right.
00:23
So, when we multiply 100 times 0 .01, if i move that decimal point two places to the right, i'm just left with 1x.
00:32
Then, when we multiply 100 by 3 .1, again, move the decimal point two places, so that will give us positive 310.
00:41
When we multiply 100 by 2 .03, again, move the decimal point two places, so that will give us 203x.
00:49
And lastly, 200 times negative 2 .9x, move the decimal two places, will be negative 296...
