We can begin this problem by creating a common denominator. our fraction is:
(1/(x-3)+4/x)/(x-1)/(x-3), giving us the common denominator of x(x-3). We then take each individual fraction in the complex fraction, making it so that each one has the denominator x(x-3). 1/(x-3) becomes x/x(x-3), 4/x becomes 4(x-3)/x(x-3), and (x-1)/(x-3) becomes x(x-1)/x(x-3).
Now, our fraction is (x/x(x-3)+ 4(x-3)/x(x-3))/x(x-1)/x(x-3), or simply ((x+4(x-3)/x(x-3))/x(x-1)/x(x-3)). If we multiply the numerator and denominator by x(x-3), we get the fraction (x+4(x+3))/(x(x-1)).
Distributing the 4, we get (x+4x+12)/(x(x-1)), or (3x+12)/(x(x-1)). (I don't know if you want the denominator factored or not, but if you want it expanded then it's (3x+12)/(x^2-x).)
I hope this was easy enough to follow! I haven't written anything like this before so I'm sorry if it wasn't very good.
Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Divide 50 from 650.</em>
<em>650 / 50 </em>
<em>13</em>
<em>This proves she sold 13 handbags</em>
The gcf of 42 and 70 is 14
