Jenna wants to solve the equation $\frac { 3 } { x - 2 } + \frac { 8 } { 10 } = \frac { x } { x - 2 }$.

1. She tries to eliminate the fractions by multiplying by $10$. Help Jenna do this. What is her new equation?

   Hint (a):

   Multiply each term by $10$.

   Answer (a):

   $\frac{30}{x-2}+8=\frac{10x}{x-2}$

2. Now what should she multiply by to eliminate the remaining fractions? Help Jenna do this and then solve for $x$. Check your answer.

   Hint (b):

   What denominator remains?

   Answer (b):

   She should multiply by $(x − 2)$.

   $x = 7$
