Question

How do you factor out the coefficient of the variable in 2/9j + 2/3? (those are fractions by the way) Please help me!! :) Thanks!

Answer 1

So we have

`(2)/(9)j+ (2)/(3)`
We can rewrite it as:

`(2)/(3*3)j+ (2)/(3)= (2)/(3)( (1)/(3)j + 1)` - its our result
Finally we can take 2/3 in front of parenthesis.
