find the difference in rational expressions

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 2x }{ 4xy }-\frac{ 6}{ 2x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

after i find common denominators what do i do

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first find the common denominators and let us see what you get

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2yx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

huh?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

4xy is the common denominators

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so what would the equation then look like?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 2x }{ 4xy}-\frac{ 6 }{ 4xy}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you have to multiply the whole thing by 2y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

6y/x?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it would be 6*2y/2x*2y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

12y/4xy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ x-6y }{ 2xy }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x-6y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

im confused

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you had x-6y, its 2x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thats not a choice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what are your options

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A.x-3/y B. x-6y/2xy C.x-3/2xy-x D.-5/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

did you copy to original down right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2x/4xy - 6/2x
