How to Solve Equations With Fractions | Algebra for Beginners

Learn how to solve equations with fractions step by step: find the lowest common denominator, multiply EVERY term, solve, and check your answer. In Episode 5 of Algebra From Scratch, we work through one fraction, two fractions, and fractions on both sides. Then try a practice problem before the solution appears. The video includes an eight-second thinking pause; pause longer whenever you need. The key: clear the fractions first, then use the algebra you already know. Multiply both sides by the same nonzero number, including every plain-number term.
