Given: $\"%28X%5E2%2F%28X%2B5%29%29+%2B+%285X%2F%28X%2B5%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Since the denominators are the same, we can just add the top numbers.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28X%5E2%2F%28X%2B5%29%29+%2B+%285X%2F%28X%2B5%29%29+=+%28X%5E2+%2B+5X%29%2F%28X%2B5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Note that both terms in the numerator contain an X, we can factor that out.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"X%5E2+%2B+5X+=+X%2A%28X+%2B+5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Now rewrite the equation.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28X%2A%28X%2B5%29%29%2F%28X%2B5%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "The X+5 will now cancel out.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28X%2A%28cross%28X%2B5%29%29%29%2F%28cross%28X%2B5%29%29+=+X%2F1\"$
\n" ); document.write( "We are left with just X.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28X%5E2%2F%28X%2B5%29%29+%2B+%285X%2F%28X%2B5%29%29+=+X\"$ \r
