Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3x as x/3 and 1/4y as y/4
The first to do is simplifying those equations, by multiplying or dividing.
Always remember to remove the fractions.
1/3x + y = 10/3 → x + 3y = 10
2x + 1/4y = 11/4 → 8x + y = 11
Now we use subtraction method. Hope this helps

x+3y/3 =10/3. eq 1
8x+y/4 = 11/4. eq 2
from equation 1
3(x+3y)=10(3)
3x+9y=30
3x=30-9y
x=3(10-3y)/3
x=10-3y. eq 3
put value of x in equation 2
8(10-3y)/4=11/4. ( 4 &4 get cancel okk)
80-24y=11
-24y=11-80
-24y=-69
y = 69/24 = 23/8
put value of y in equation 3
x=10-3(23/8)
x=10-69/8. (now by lcm)
x= 11/8
check
1/3(11/8) +23/8 = 10/3
11/24 + 23/8 = 10/3. (by lcm)
80/24=10/3
10/3 = 10/3
LHS = RHS
