2/c+1 -1 over 2 + 5/c+1 Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2/c+1 -1 over 2 + 5/c+1
-------
2/(c+1) - (1/2) + 5/(c+1)
----
lcd = 2(c+1)
------
Rewrite each fraction with the lcd as its denominator:
(2*2/lcd) - (c+1)/lcd + (5*2)/lcd
------
Combine the numerators over the lcd:
------
= [4 -c - 1 + 10]/lcd
------
= [13-c]/[2(c+1)]
