The left side of the expression has a denominator of 4 while the right side has a denominator of 1.
To start with, we have to find the LCM (lowest common multiple) for both sides of the expression
The LCM of 4 and 1 is 4.
When dealing with fractions, the first step after finding the LCM is;
Left side:LCM divided by left denominator times left numerator PLUS
Right side:LCM divided by right denominator times right numerator.
Thus we now have the following;
(4/4) * (-2 + 2*3) + (4/1) * 4*(-2)
1 * (-2 + 6) + 4 * (-8)
4 + (-32)
-28
