Explanation:
doing whole question
- Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction
12+7=23⋅−6
12+7=23⋅−6
12+7=23⋅−6
2+7=23⋅−6
- Combine multiplied terms into a single fraction
2+7=23−6
2+7=23−6
- Subtract 7 from both sides of the equation
2+7=23−6
2+7−7=23−6−7
Subtract the numbers
2=23−13
- Multiply all terms by the same value to eliminate fraction denominators
2=23−13
2⋅3⋅2=2⋅3(23−13)
Cancel multiplied terms that are in the denominator
