Lesson Summary:

In this lesson, you'll learn how to combine like terms with distributive property and fractions. The teacher walks you through the process of using the distributive property and then shows you an alternate method of getting rid of fractions by multiplying by multiples of the denominator. By doing this, you avoid changing your problem and can easily combine like terms to get your final answer.
