Step 3 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
3.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 10 as the denominator :
b b • 10
b = — = ——————
1 10
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:
b • 10 - (27) 10b - 27
————————————— = ————————
10 10
Equation at the end of step 3 :
(10b - 27) 131
—————————— - ——— ≥ 0
10 25
Step 4 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
4.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 10
The right denominator is : 25
| Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 5 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
| Product of all Prime Factors | 10 | 25 | 50 |
Least Common Multiple:
50
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 = 5
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 2
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. (10b-27) • 5 —————————————————— = ———————————— L.C.M 50 R. Mult. • R. Num. 131 • 2 —————————————————— = ——————— L.C.M 50
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
(10b-27) • 5 - (131 • 2) 50b - 397
———————————————————————— = —————————
50 50
Equation at the end of step 4 :
50b - 397
————————— ≥ 0
50
Step 5 :
5.1 Multiply both sides by 50
5.2 Divide both sides by 50
b-(397/50) ≥ 0
Solve Basic Inequality :
5.3 Add 397/50 to both sides
b ≥ 397/50
