Question

What is the Least Common Denominator of the fraction 3 x over x plus 1 plus the fraction x plus 1 over 2 x plus the fraction 5 over x

Answer 1

Is this the equation? 3x/x + (x+1)/(2x+5/x)? A little confusing without paranthesis!

Answer 2

\[\frac{ 3x }{ x+1? }+\frac{ x+1 }{ 2x }+\frac{ 5 }{ x }\]

Answer 3

ignore that random question mark

Answer 4

If yes, work on the denominator first:

2x+ 5/x = (2x^2+5)/x

Now it's 3x/x + (2x^2+5)/x

So make the common denominator x!

(3x+ 2x^2 + 5)/x

Answer 5
