Oh, so you are then? Nice.
I thought you'd notice a double negative over the inner meaning of that post and its reply
More like exploiting a shift in context.
my point being, you ignored the double negative :shock: :shock: :shock:

I didn't ignore it. Exercising the double negative, as I did, makes my statement read:

I actually do think it's C, but I could be missing something.

Not had to do real math in years.

5 may just go into 15 five times nowadays....with inflation and such.

Oh, and I don't think anyone ever answered this one:

It must be either A or C right? Because the denominator will have Csquared?

Edit: I came out with A after a few trials.. would that be correct?
LCD again here.....must be the theme.

Multiply the first fraction by 1 in the form of a/a and the second one by 1 in the form of b/b and you get

3a^2/abc + 2b^2/abc or 3a^2 + 2b^2/abc

The answer is B.

Yea, the answer is C. I blame the sleep inducing flu tablets I took the night before. :lol:

I didn't dare talk against them - I was pretty sure it was C as well.

15/5 is 3, not 5, that's where I went wrong. I tend to miss simple math quite a bit... in my abstract algebra class this past spring, I was dealing with modular arithmetic and had to re-convince myself that 7 + 9 was not 17. This tends to happen when simple arithmetic is the least of your problems.
