Question
$$\frac{185}{7}+\frac{92}{3} = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} \frac{185}{7}+\frac{92}{3} &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 21 }. \\[1 em]21\cdot\frac{185}{7}+21\cdot\frac{92}{3} &= 21\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]555+644 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]1199 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ 1199 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
