Answer 1

x/3=x^2/x+5

First cross multiply to get rid of the fractions.

x^2+5x=3x^2

Simplify by combining like terms.

-2x^2+5x=0

Factor out x.

x(-2x+5)=0

One of the factors must equal zero for the equation to stand.

x=0,2.5

Check for extraneous solutions by plugging in the values for x. They both work.
