I don't need answers I just need you to explain how to do the problem
1) 4/8 + 2y/8xy
Reduce:
1/2 + 1/4x
---
Least common denominator: 4x
Rewrite each term with the lcd as its denominator:
---
2x/4x + 1/4x
---
Combine:
(2x+1)/4x
============================
2) a^2+a-72/8a * 1/a-8
Factor:
[(a+9)(a-8)/8a]
Cancel:
(a+9)/(8a)
==================
3) [9a/16a^3-64a^2] / [9a/6a-24]
---
Factor:
[9a/(16a^2(a-4))]/[9a/(6(a-4)]
--------
Invert and multiply:
[9a/(16a^2(a-4))]
----
Cancel:
[9a/(16a^2(a-4))]
----
[1/8a^2]
---
= 3/(8a^2)
======================
