HOW TO SOLVE RATIONAL EQUATIONS

To solve rational equations, we have to know operations on fractions.

To add or subtract two or more fractions, we should make the denominators same. If the denominators are not same, we have to take least common multiple and simplify.
By combining fractions on both sides separately, we will get only one fraction on both side of the equal sign.
Then doing cross multiplication, we can get rid of the fractions.
If is necessary, we have to use distributive property and combing the like terms, we can isolate x.
