What are Algebraic Fractions?
Algebraic fractions are factions that contain both letters and numbers e.g.
\( \frac{x}{5}, \frac{2y}{3}, \frac{3x^2}{5y}, \frac{a \: + \: b}{x \: – \: 2y}, \scriptsize \: etc \)Equivalent Algebraic Fractions:
Equivalent algebraic fractions can be obtained by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator by the same quantity.
Example 4.1.1:
Copy and complete these equivalent fractions.
(a) \( \frac{3x}{7} = \frac{?}{21} \)
(b) \( \frac{1}{x} = \frac{3}{?} \)
(c) \( \frac{a}{b} = \frac{?}{11bx} \)
Solution
(a) \( \frac{3x}{7} = \frac{?}{21} \)
