no.

3. yrelhan4

nah you cant do that.. you statement basically means.. 1800n/n + 180w/n..

4. burhan101

ohh okay

5. yrelhan4

1800*

6. burhan101

thanks :)

7. yrelhan4

Cheers. :)

The way you wrote it seems a little off. $\large \frac{1800n}{n} + \frac{1800w}{n} = 1800 + \frac{1800w}{n}$

can i multiply h by both terms to get rid of the fraction?

10. Jhannybean

oh that's an h? lol.

11. burhan101

n*

12. yrelhan4

You can do that, yes.. but then you have to divide it too to negate that effect. that wont be of any help though as it would result in the same expression as you have right now..

13. burhan101

right .. so there's no way to get rid of that n ?

14. primeralph

Nope. Unless you use an eraser.

15. Jhannybean

I would just divide each part in the numerator by the denominator and see what can cancel out.
