\dfrac{x}{x+1} \ , \  \dfrac{7x}{x-1}

\dfrac{x (x -1)}{(x+1)(x -1)} \ , \  \dfrac{7x(x+1)}{(x-1)(x+ 1)}

<u>We know that (a + b)(a - b) = a² - b²:</u>

\dfrac{x (x -1)}{x^2 - 1}} \ , \ \dfrac{7x(x+1)} {x^2 - 1}

Answer: LCD = ( x + 1) (x - 1)

\frac{x}{x + 1}, \frac{7x}{x - 1}

To find the least common denominator, multiply \frac{x}{x + 1} by (x - 1) and multiply \frac{7x}{x - 1} by (x + 1).

(x + 1)(x - 1) = x² - x + x - 1 ⇒ x² - 1

x² - 1 is the LCD.
