Solution - Adding, subtracting and finding the least common multiple
Step by Step Solution
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "0.75" was replaced by "(75/100)".
Rearrange:
Rearrange the equation by subtracting what is to the right of the greater than sign from both sides of the inequality :
c/2-(-(75/100))<0

Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
3.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 2
The right denominator is : 4
Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
---|---|---|---|
2 | 1 | 2 | 2 |
Product of all Prime Factors | 2 | 4 | 4 |
Least Common Multiple:
4
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 = 1
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. c • 2 —————————————————— = ————— L.C.M 4 R. Mult. • R. Num. -3 —————————————————— = —— L.C.M 4
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:
c • 2 - (-3) 2c + 3
———————————— = ——————
4 4
Equation at the end of step 3 :
2c + 3
—————— < 0
4
Step 4 :
4.1 Multiply both sides by 4
4.2 Divide both sides by 2
c+(3/2) < 0
Solve Basic Inequality :
4.3 Subtract 3/2 from both sides
c < -3/2
