For my buddy algebra
algebra,

I see that LaTex is giving you a rough time in posts like this:

For your 2 term fraction problems that you enter, use this little generator I built for you. You want to paste in the text from Cell B10. I even named the file after you. (Yes)

May I recommend this post, written by Krizalid?

This will aid you in typing perfect textbook-like expressions, without knowing a single bit of LaTeX itself.

a-7 enter as (a - 7) or just a - 7

$\frac{4}{a-7} = \frac{-2a}{a+3}$
$\frac{3x}{x+2} - \frac{x-2}{x+2}$
