Solution - Adding, subtracting and finding the least common multiple
Step by Step Solution
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :
4/9*g-3-(7/3)>0
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :

((— • g) - 3) - — > 0
9 3
Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 9 as the denominator :
3 3 • 9
3 = — = —————
1 9
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
3.2 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:
4g - (3 • 9) 4g - 27
———————————— = ———————
9 9
Equation at the end of step 3 :
(4g - 27) 7
————————— - — > 0
9 3
Step 4 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
4.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 9
The right denominator is : 3
Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
3 | 2 | 1 | 2 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 9 | 3 | 9 |
Least Common Multiple:
9
Calculating Multipliers :
4.2 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 = 1
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 3
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.
L. Mult. • L. Num. (4g-27) —————————————————— = ——————— L.C.M 9 R. Mult. • R. Num. 7 • 3 —————————————————— = ————— L.C.M 9
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
(4g-27) - (7 • 3) 4g - 48
————————————————— = ———————
9 9
Step 5 :
Pulling out like terms :
5.1 Pull out like factors :
4g - 48 = 4 • (g - 12)
Equation at the end of step 5 :
4 • (g - 12)
———————————— > 0
9
Step 6 :
6.1 Multiply both sides by 9
6.2 Divide both sides by 4
Solve Basic Inequality :
6.3 Add 12 to both sides
g > 12
