1

Problem

Simplify the expression
\$ (1/2a+1/3b+4/3c) + (a+3b-c) \$

2

Step

After eleminating the brackets we get

\$ 1/2a + 1/3b + 4/3c + a + 3b - c \$

3

Step

Adding like terms together

\$ (1/2a + a) + (1/3b + 3b) + (4/3c - c) \$

4

Step

Taking variables common

\$ (1/2 + 1) a + (1/3 + 3) b + (4/3 - 1) c \$

5

Step

Taking LCM as 2,3

\$ ((1 + 2)/2)a + ((1 + 9)/3)b + ((4 - 3)/3)c \$

6

Step

After simplification we get

\$ 3/2a + 10/3b + 1/3c \$
