I'm having some problems to understand a simplification and I know the correct answer but I'd like to understand why my method is wrong or what rule I'm breaking.
I have an equation like the following:
Fr⋅(1Sr+1Sp)=FtSp
Where the variable I'm looking for is Fr. My tendency was to do:
Fr=FtSp⋅(Sr+Sp)
But it seems to be wrong, I should have do:
Ft⋅(Sp+SrSr⋅Sp)=FtSp
and then:
Ft=Sr⋅Sp⋅FtSp+Sr
Why I can not simply pass & inverse the fraction to the other side? Thanks so much!!
Answer
Because
1a+1b≠1a+b
This is already the case for a=b=1, where one the left side you get 2 and on the right side you get 12.
