Simplify:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1%2F1+%2B+1%2Fxab+%2B+1%2F1+%2B+1%2Fxba\"$ First, $\"1%2F1+=+1\"$ and $\"1%2B1+=+2\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2+%2B+1%2Fxab+%2B+1%2Fxba\"$ Now, $\"1%2Fxab+=+1%2Fxba\"$ and $\"1%2Fxab+%2B+1%2Fxab+=+2%2Fxab\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2+%2B+2%2Fxab\"$ Now add the two fractions, common denominator is xab.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"2+%2B+2%2Fxab+=+%282xab+%2B+2%29%2Fxab\"$ = $\"2%28xab+%2B+1%29%2Fxab\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
