find a common denominator between 6 and 21. What do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x/6+5x/21= x( 1/6 + 5/21)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[\large \frac{21}{21}*\frac{x}{6}+\frac{5x}{21}*\frac{6}{6}\] can you simplify this now?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[x( \frac{ 1 }{6 } + \frac{5}{21})\] \[x( \frac{ 1*21 }{6*21 } + \frac{5*6}{21*6}) \]

OpenStudy (luigi0210):
