Thank for yr clear explanation.
May I know why we reduce the factor to 2u - 1 p = 92 and 1u - 1 p = 29 instead of multiply? Tks
Yes, You are Right! You can choose to Multiply to make 1u-1p=29 to become 2u-2p=58, then use it to compare with 4u-2p=184. Ultimate goal is to make "p" the same, so that you can get rid of it;) My personal habit is to make the numbers smaller, so that i do not rely heavily on my calculator. Haha;) I am glad you are asking questions like this. This shows that you understand the steps. Great job. Keep practicing;)
