    How can I express A and B as fractions from c = A b/a + Bd?

    I did the first section of the question. I rearranged a = 4b / (6c -5d) to be c = (A b/a) + Bd but then it says express A and B as fractions in their simplest form. Is the question worded wrong? I've never seen anything like this before?

    At what age can you tell if you're good at math?

    I disagree with everyone here on the most part. I believe (of course, based on myself) that grit is the main factor in how people become good mathematicians. I'm new to maths but if you're motivated and have realistic goals you can become a ace...no matter what. Grit. It's a personality...
