The common denominator to use is x. MULTIPLY the left and right members by x, if you are interested in solving the equation. If you are just interested in addition on the right member, then just multiply the 6 by 1=x%2Fx and ...

6%28x%2Fx%29%2B4%2Fx
%286x%29%2Fx%2B4%2Fx
%286x%2B4%29%2Fx
This would not really be necessary for solving the equation. Just multiply left and right members by x and simplify, solving for x.
