OpenStudy (anonymous):

is that the correct question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry my equation dissapeared lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ x }{ x+4 } \div \frac{ 5x }{ x+2 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

kk so next line is \[\frac{ x }{ x ^{2} +4} \times \frac{ x+2 }{ 5x}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then x(x+2) / (x^2+4)(5x)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[ \frac{ x ^{2}+2x }{ 5x ^{2} +20x }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nah it can be simplified further im trying to remember lol, its bee years since i did math

OpenStudy (anonymous):

k i think ive got it, gove me a sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you can take an x of each part of the equation as below x(x+2) / x(5x+10) x+2 / 5+10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x+2 / 5x+10

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, how did you get the 10?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha your right it should be 20 lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so the answer would be x + 2 / 5 (x + 4)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought it would simplify further but maybe your right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought so too but couldn't figure it out

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks so much for your help :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no worries :)
