| ① | Multiply $4$ by $ \dfrac{i}{6} $ to get $ \dfrac{ 4i }{ 6 } $. Step 1: Write $ 4 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{1} $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} 4 \cdot \frac{i}{6} & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{4}{\color{red}{1}} \cdot \frac{i}{6} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 4 \cdot i }{ 1 \cdot 6 } \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 4i }{ 6 } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | Multiply $ \dfrac{4i}{6} $ by $ i $ to get $ \dfrac{ 4i^2 }{ 6 } $. Step 1: Write $ i $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{4i}{6} \cdot i & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{4i}{6} \cdot \frac{i}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 4i \cdot i }{ 6 \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 4i^2 }{ 6 } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ③ | $$ 4i^2 = 4 \cdot (-1) = -4 $$ |
| ④ | Place minus sign in front of the fraction. |
| ⑤ | Divide both the top and bottom numbers by $ \color{orangered}{ 2 } $. |
| ⑥ | Add $ \dfrac{-2}{3} $ and $ 6 $ to get $ \dfrac{ \color{purple}{ 16 } }{ 3 }$. Step 1: Write $ 6 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: To add fractions they must have the same denominator. |
