OpenStudy (anonymous):

first work on getting the lcd of the top and bottom part

OpenStudy (anonymous):

multiply the outermost fraction by \(\frac{b}{b}\) to clear the complex fraction.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Simba, same method as your last problem!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes like math cruncher 4 said. that way you combine the top term into one fraction and the bottom term also will become one fraction. Then you can simply multiply the top fraction by the reciprocal of the bottom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok hang on

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{a+\frac{a}{b}}{b - \frac{81}{b}}\]\[= \frac{a+\frac{a}{b}}{b - \frac{81}{b}}\cdot 1\]\[=\frac{a+\frac{a}{b}}{b - \frac{81}{b}}\cdot \frac{b}{b}\]\[=...\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

a(b+1)/(b-9)(b+9)?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is that correct because that's what I got.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yep, seems right to me.

Thanks
