Answer 2

\[\frac{ x+2 }{ 2x }\times \frac{ x+3 }{ x-1 }\]

Is that the right problem?

Answer 3

Yes it is!

Answer 4

When multiplying fractions, you multiply numerator x numerator and denominator x denominator. You'll have to use the distributive property to simplify, but the new problem is:
\[\frac{(x+2)(x+3)}{2x(x-1)}\]

Answer 5

Sorry I haven't replied in so long @jwhite12 but is this the correct answer?
