Solve a System of Equations with Elimination when Your Solutions are Fractions

The video tutorial explains how to solve equations using the elimination method. It begins by discussing the importance of aligning coefficients and finding the least common denominator (LCD) for the variables. The tutorial then demonstrates the application of the distributive property to simplify equations and solve for the variables R and T. The process includes multiplying equations to achieve the same coefficients, adding equations to eliminate variables, and solving the resulting equations to find the values of R and T.

What steps do you take after obtaining the same LCD for both equations?

How do you solve for the variable R after combining the equations?
