Step 2 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
2.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 4 as the denominator :
8z 8z • 4
8z = —— = ——————
1 4
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 :
2.2 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:
8z • 4 - (3) 32z - 3
———————————— = ———————

Step 4 :
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction :
4.1 Adding a fraction to a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using 11 as the denominator :
z z • 11
z = — = ——————
1 11
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
z • 11 + 2 11z + 2
—————————— = ———————

Step 5 :
Calculating the Least Common Multiple :
5.1 Find the Least Common Multiple
The left denominator is : 11
The right denominator is : 4
| Prime Factor | Left Denominator | Right Denominator | L.C.M = Max {Left,Right} |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11 | 1 | 0 | 1 |
| 2 | 0 | 2 | 2 |
| Product of all Prime Factors | 11 | 4 | 44 |
Least Common Multiple:
44
Calculating Multipliers :
5.2 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 = 4
Right_M = L.C.M / R_Deno = 11
Making Equivalent Fractions :
5.3 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. (11z+2) • 4 —————————————————— = ——————————— L.C.M 44 R. Mult. • R. Num. (32z-3) • 11 —————————————————— = ———————————— L.C.M 44
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
5.4 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
(11z+2) • 4 - ((32z-3) • 11) 41 - 308z
———————————————————————————— = —————————
44 44
Equation at the end of step 5 :
41 - 308z
————————— > 0
44
Step 6 :
6.1 Multiply both sides by 44
6.2 Multiply both sides by (-1)
Flip the inequality sign since you are multiplying by a negative number
308z-41 < 0
6.3 Divide both sides by 308
z-(41/308) < 0
Solve Basic Inequality :
6.4 Add 41/308 to both sides
z < 41/308
