Step 3 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
3.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 5
The right denominator is : 2
Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
5 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
2 | 0 | 1 | 1 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 5 | 2 | 10 |
Least Common Multiple:
10
Calculating Multipliers :
3.2 Calculate multipliers for the two fractions
Denote the Least Common Multiple by L.C.M
Denote the Left Multiplier by Left_M
Denote the Right Multiplier by Right_M
Denote the Left Deniminator by L_Deno
Denote the Right Multiplier by R_Deno
Left_M = L.C.M / L_Deno = 2
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 5
Making Equivalent Fractions :
3.3 Rewrite the two fractions into equivalent fractions
Two fractions are called equivalent if they have the same numeric value.
For example : 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent, y/(y+1)2 and (y2+y)/(y+1)3 are equivalent as well.
To calculate equivalent fraction , multiply the Numerator of each fraction, by its respective Multiplier.
L. Mult. • L. Num. 9x • 2 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 10 R. Mult. • R. Num. 27 • 5 —————————————————— = —————— L.C.M 10
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
9x • 2 - (27 • 5) 18x - 135
————————————————— = —————————
10 10
Step 4 :
Pulling out like terms :
4.1 Pull out like factors :
18x - 135 = 9 • (2x - 15)
Equation at the end of step 4 :
9 • (2x - 15)
————————————— ≤ 0
10
Step 5 :
5.1 Multiply both sides by 10
5.2 Divide both sides by 9
5.3 Divide both sides by 2
x-(15/2) ≤ 0
Solve Basic Inequality :
5.4 Add 15/2 to both sides
x ≤ 15/2
