How do I finish this problem?
simplifying rational expressions using GCF

quickstudent · Answer

This is the expression to simplify.

quickstudent · Answer

I got the GCF, x^3, and this is how far I got. But now I'm not sure which terms to cancel out.
$$\frac{ (x^3*x)+(x^3*x^3) }{ x^3 * 1 }$$

anonymous · Answer

$$\frac{x^6+x^4}{x^3}=\frac{x^3 \left(x^3+x\right)}{x^3}=x^3+x $$

I didn't get to you in time.   :'(

anonymous · Answer

I got the same answer, though.  ;D
If you want, you can take out ''x'' from both to get:
 $$x(x ^{2}+1)$$
Either answer works.   :D

Oh, OK. I see how to do it now. Thank you to both of you:)
