The LCM of 12,16, and 20 would be 240
(((x + y) / 3) + (1 / x)) / (5 + (15 / x))
The best way is to make it one fraction.
Multiply by ((3x/3x) / (3x/3x)) to remove the other fractions.
((x(x + y)) + 3(1)) / (5(3x) + 3(15))
(x^2 + xy + 3) / (15x + 45)
Then factor to simplify
(x^2 + xy + 3) / (3(x + 15))
It already is in simplest form because the numerator and denonimator don't have a common factor to then divide them by.
We can use the FOIL method to solve.
(5x + 3)(7x - 7)
(5x * 7x) + (5x * -7) + (3 * 7x) + (3 * -7)
35x - 35x + 21x - 21
0 + 0
0
Best of Luck!
