12/A+24/A=A
Let's solve in :
ⓘ Like terms are grouped by adding their coefficients: =
We multiply both sides by , nonzero for the fractions to be defined
ⓘ Multiplying a fraction by a term multiplies its numerator: = ■The original denominator must remain nonzero. The fraction is simplified by dividing the numerator and the denominator by their common factor : = ■Multiplying powers with the same base adds the exponents: =
The two numbers whose square is are and
