Question

How do you combine `(x+3)/x+(x+5)/(2x)`?

Answer 1

Make a common denominator.
Combine the numerators.

Explanation:

Given: `(x+3)/x+(x+5)/(2x)`

Multiply the first term by 1 in the form of `2/2`:

`(x+3)/x2/2+(x+5)/(2x) =`

`(2x+6)/(2x)+(x+5)/(2x) =`

Combine the numerators:

`(3x+11)/(2x)`
