Trying to subtract 2 fractional
I'm trying to solve f ( x ) = 0 for x, but I can't figure it out as I have to get both the denominators to become for instance 8x, and then only 1 numerator has x in it. How can I solve this?
f ( x ) = 1 4 3 2 x

1 4 = 3 2 x would be my suggestion and then multiply both sides by "4x" to remove the denominators giving:
x = 6
Then, one could evaluate the original expression where f ( 6 ) = 1 4 3 2 × 6 = 1 4 3 12 = 0 which is the desired result.
