     When  were  fractions  first  used?    

     Remember  when  working  with  fractions  it  is  important  that  you  simplify  your  answers.      

   1.    Simplify  the  following  algebraic  fractions  

a)  !!!!"!"

        b)  !!!!!!

!                    c)  !

!!!!!!!!!

               d)  !!!!!!!"!!!

= !!  

   2.  Solve  the  following  equations.  

a)  !!!= 12                    b)!!

!!!"!

= 33            c)  !!!!!!!!!!!

= 9          d)  !!!!"!!!

= !!!!!!!!!!!

     3.  Solve  the  following  equations.  

a)  !!+ !!

!"= 16                                                b)  !

!× !!

!= 2                      c)!!!!

!"− !!!!

!"= 1.5                        

 

d)!!!!!

÷ !!!!!

= 3    

       1.  Simplify  the  following  expression.  

8(𝑥 − 3)!

4(𝑥 − 3)

2.  Solve  the  following  equation.  2𝑥 − 14 +

𝑥 − 15 = 2
