What if we want to solve this equation? two -thirds -g equals negative nine -halfs.
00:11
Oh, i'm sorry.
00:12
It's not negative -nine -halfs yet.
00:14
Yeah, i'm getting ahead of myself because i've done my work ahead of ten.
00:17
How about two -thirds -g equals negative four and a half? so actually, that's the first thing i'm going to do here is i'm going to turn this into two -thirds -g equals negative -nine -halfs.
00:33
We solve handwriting is horrible today bear with me we solve we're supposed to divide both sides by two -thirds to get rid of that two -thirds but really we want to look at it is that we're going to multiply by the reciprocal so the two's cancel the three's cancel and that just leaves us with g so whatever we did on the left we also have to do on the right so we'll multiply by three halves over here as well i don't see any simplifying i can do i would normally look for that.

So it's just negative 9 times three is negative 27.
01:10
For our denominators, two times two is four.
01:14
That's our answer.
01:17
If you want to turn that into, you know, four goes into 27, six full time.
01:24
So you can call it negative six and that would be 24...
