When solving a rational equation, why it is ok to remove the denominator by multiplying both sides by the lcd and why can you not do the same operation when simplifying a rational expression?

I was confused initially whether to buy this software or not. But in five days I am more than satisfied with the Algebrator. I was struggling with quadratic equations and inequalities. The logical and step-bystep approach to problem solving has been a boon to me and now I love to solve these equations.
Colin Bers, NY

For years, I paid for an expensive program for my daughter that was nothing more than a glorified tutoring. At my daughters teachers suggestion, I bought your software program. Shes already done so much better that I realize I should have bought it for her a long time ago and saved money!
Susan Raines, LA

It appears you have improved upon an already good program. Again my thanks, and congrats.
Theresa Saunders, OR

WOW!!! This is AWESOME!! Love the updated version, it makes things go SMOOTH!!!
