Making Equivalent Fractions :
4.3 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.

Step 9 :
Pulling out like terms :
9.1 Pull out like factors :
-419p - 610 = -1 • (419p + 610)

-419p - 610
——————————— = 0
100
Step 10 :
When a fraction equals zero :
10.1 When a fraction equals zero ...Where a fraction equals zero, its numerator, the part which is above the fraction line, must equal zero.
Now,to get rid of the denominator, Tiger multiplys both sides of the equation by the denominator.
Here's how:
-419p-610
————————— • 100 = 0 • 100
100
Now, on the left hand side, the 100 cancels out the denominator, while, on the right hand side, zero times anything is still zero.
The equation now takes the shape :
-419p-610 = 0
Solving a Single Variable Equation :
10.2 Solve : -419p-610 = 0
Add 610 to both sides of the equation :
-419p = 610
Multiply both sides of the equation by (-1) : 419p = -610
Divide both sides of the equation by 419:
p = -610/419 = -1.456
One solution was found :
p = -610/419 = -1.456How did we do?
