solve.
6t + 7/ 4t - 1 = 3t +8/2t - 4
The way you typed it ....
6t + 7/4t - 1 = 3t +8/2t - 4
6t + (7/4)t - 1 = 3t + 4t - 4
6t - 3t - (7/4)t = -4 + 1
(5/4)t = -3
t = -12/5
I have a feeling that is not what you meant.
Please put in the necessary brackets
(I have a feeling you meant:
(6t + 7)/(4t - 1) = (3t +8)/(2t - 4) )
ah your right =)
then cross-multiply
I can see the 12t^2 on each side canceling, giving you an equation in t

To solve the given equation, we will follow these steps:
Step 1: Clear the denominators by multiplying both sides of the equation by (4t - 1) * (2t - 4). This will eliminate the fractions.
(4t - 1) * (2t - 4) * (6t + 7) / (4t - 1) = (4t - 1) * (2t - 4) * (3t + 8) / (2t - 4)
Simplifying both sides, we get:
(6t + 7) * (2t - 4) = (3t + 8) * (4t - 1)
Step 2: Expand both sides of the equation:
12t^2 - 24t + 14t - 28 = 12t^2 - 3t + 32t - 8
Simplifying further, we have:
12t^2 - 10t - 28 = 12t^2 + 29t - 8
Step 3: Collect like terms and put them on one side of the equation:
12t^2 - 12t^2 - 10t - 29t = 8 - 28
Simplifying, we have:
-39t = -20
Step 4: Solve for t by dividing both sides of the equation by -39:
t = (-20) / (-39)
Simplifying, we get:
t = 20/39
Therefore, the solution to the equation is t = 20/39.
