Solve a rational equation by eliminating the denominators

The video tutorial guides students through solving equations by eliminating fractions. It begins with identifying the need to remove denominators and introduces the concept of the least common denominator (LCD). The instructor explains how to find the LCD for given expressions and demonstrates multiplying each term by the LCD to simplify the equation. Finally, the tutorial shows how to solve the simplified equation using the distributive property, resulting in a solution without fractions.
