Find the least common denominator for the pair of rational numbers. (x+1)/(2x^2-5x-3) ; (x-5)/(2x+1)

OpenStudy (kropot72):

The denominator of the first expression can be factorised as follows: 2x^2 - 5x - 3 = (2x + 1)(x - 3) Can you find the lowest common denominator now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

NO, I am horrible at math. :(

OpenStudy (kropot72):

I gave it already: (2x + 1)(x - 3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

See? Thank you.

You're welcome :)
