After the fraction x plus 2 all over 3 minus the fraction x plus 1 all over 2x have been combined using the least common denominator of 6x, what is the numerator? @SolomonZelman @midhun.madhu1987 Help Please
Can you draw the question please ?
Alright is going to take some time
draw???
\[\frac{ x+2 }{ 3 }-\frac{ x+1 }{ 2x}\]
this is the problem ? you are just subtracting fractions ?
Read the question Again
Yes that is the problem and you are subtracting
\(\LARGE\color{black}{ \frac{(x+2)}{3} - \frac{(x+1)}{2x} }\) \(\LARGE\color{black}{ \frac{(x+2)\color{red}{\times2x}}{3\color{red}{\times2x}} - \frac{(x+1)\color{red}{\times 3}}{2x \color{red}{\times3}} }\) \(\LARGE\color{black}{ \frac{2x(x+2)}{6x} - \frac{3(x+1)}{6x} }\) \(\LARGE\color{black}{ \frac{2x(x+2)-3(x+1)}{6x} }\) \(\LARGE\color{black}{ \frac{2x^2+4x-3x-3}{6x} }\) \(\LARGE\color{black}{ \frac{2x^2+x-3}{6x} }\)
Good thanks can help with: What is the least common denominator of the fraction 7 over 3 x plus the fraction 2 over x plus the fraction x over x minus 1 ?
