Equations with fractions, part 2 (8th grade math/algebra 1)

Learn to solve linear equations that have fractional expressions! I go through three different examples in the video. The first one, we could multiply by the LCM of the denominators, but that equation is actually a proportion, so cross-multiplying works, too. For the others, we will use the general technique of multiplying both sides of the equation by the LCM of the denominator(s).
