What is the simplified form of the quantity 1 over b minus 1 over a all over the quantity 1 over b plus 1 over a?

jolli1 [7]

Option B: (b-a)/(b+a) is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is;

$\frac{\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{a}}{\frac{1}{b}+\frac{1}{a}}$

First of all we have to take LCM in both numerator and denominator

So,

$=\frac{\frac{b-a}{ab}}{\frac{b+a}{ab}}$

The reciprocal of the denominator will be multiplied with the numerator for simplification

So,

$=\frac{b-a}{ab} * \frac{ab}{b+a}\\= \frac{b-a}{b+a}$

Hence,

Option B: (b-a)/(b+a) is the correct answer
