A Problem Aday Solves a Fraction Equation
Let X be the smaller part and 68 minus X the larger. Set (68 minus X) divided by X equal to 3 plus 12 over X. Solve: (68 minus X)/X = 3 + 12/X. Multiply through by X to get 68 minus X = 3X + 12. This yields 68 minus X = 3X plus 12, so 68 minus 12 = 4X, giving X = 56/4 = 14. The smaller part is 14 and the larger part is 54.
