multiply everything out

3x/6 + 5y/6 + 6x/15 - 4y

get common denominators for all (which would be 30)

15x/30 + 25y/30 + 12x/30 - 120y/30

32x -95y
_______
30

that would be the simplified answer

you commence with 4(5y-3) utilising the distributive resources. (4*5y)-(4*3) this provides 20y-12 Now we address (6y+3). The "-" in the front of this component can be appeared at as "-a million," so that you're utilising the distributive resources back (-a million*6y)+(-a million*3) = -6y-3 once you tack it back onto something else, it turns into: 20y-12-6y-3 The associative resources of addition states a+b=b+a, so that you'll rearrange those values (contain the +/- indications to all the values). combine like values: 20y-6y-12-3 20y-6y=14y and -12-3=-15 Your answer is 14y-15 EDIT: i'm not affirming you probably did this, yet one mistakes in searching at this expression is viewing the "-(6y+3)" section as -6y+3. The parentheses teach 6y+3 as one section so it isn't 4(5y-3) - 6y+3, yet 4(5y-3) subtracted through the entire expression 6y+3 ( 4[5y-3] subtract 6y and subtract +3). -(6y+3) would seem as if this: -6y - +3 (or purely -3 to make: -6y-3)

Begin by multiplying everything out. So for example the first half (before the plus sign) is (3/6)x + (5/6)y. Then group the x terms together and y terms together and simplify.

first you multiply whats outside the bracket by whats inside so
1/6=0.166666666*3x=0.5x 0.166666666*5y=0.833333333y
and
2/3=0.666666666*3/5=0.4x 0.666666666*6=4y


so 0.5x+0.833333333y+0.4x-4y

then group the same letters together
0.5x+0.4x=0.9x 0.833333333y-4y= -3.166666667y

0.9x+- 3.166666667y is your answer. there is no total solution to this question!!!!

if you cant be bothered working that out, the calculator will do it for you!!!!!

It has to equal something, or there's nothing you can do with it.
