Clearing the equation of fractions applies the Multiplication Property of Equality by multiplying both sides of the equation by the LCD of all fractions in the equation. The result of this operation will be a new equation, equivalent to the first, but with no fractions. When we have an equation with decimals, we can use the same process we used to clear fractions.
