Your equation is a bit hard to decipher (you should use parentheses so that we can understand exactly what goes in your numerators and denominators) but having said that, I think you meant to write
Either way, with rational expressions, you need to find the Lowest Common Denominator.
You have denominators of 8, 16, and 1 (the 1 is the understood denominator under the x on the right side of the equation)
So, your LCD here is 16
