That's right. You can go further than that seeing that the right hand member is . You can then say, the LCD is . You would then solve for x by first multiplying the right and left members by . Doing so and simplifying will clear the denominators, and you continue solving for x.
(Do not capitalize a variable unless it is defined that way in the problem; in which case always capitalize it in the problem. .)
