Answer: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply by 12 because to get rid of the fractions all terms should be divided by the LCM (ie the smallest multiple that is exactly divisible by 2, 4 and 3)

Multiples of 3 = 3, 6, 9, 12

Multiples of 4 = 4, 8, 12, 16

Multiples of 2 = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12

Therefore the fractions should be multiplied by 12

Answer:

last option is correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

$perimeter = 2(l + w) \\ = 2( \frac{5x + 10}{2x + 5} + \frac{x - 2}{2x + 5} ) \\ = 2( \frac{5x + 10 + x - 2}{2x + 5} ) \\ = 2( \frac{6x + 8}{2x + 5} ) \\ = \frac{12x + 16}{2x + 16}$
