The equation
\((1)/(3x) + (2)/(7y) = (1)/(7)\) can be rewritten as 7y + 6x = 3xy

How to rewrite the equation

From the equation
\((1)/(3x) + (2)/(7y) = (1)/(7)\)

To clear the fractions, we can multiply both sides of the equation by the least common denominator, which is 21xy:


\[ 21xy \left((1)/(3x)\right) + 21xy \left((2)/(7y)\right) = 21xy \left((1)/(7)\right) \]

Simplifying each term

7y + 6x = 3xy

So, the equation is 7y + 6x = 3xy
