odgovoreh · Accepted Answer

Step 1 Multiplying the rational expressions: To multiply rational expressions, we use the following property of fractions: This says that to multiply two fractions, we multiply their numerators and multiply their denominators. Dividing the rational expressions: To divide rational expressions, we use the following property of fractions: This says to divide the fraction by another fraction we invert the devisor and multiply. Given expression= 11+x+h−11+xh We combine terms in the numerator into a single fraction. Then we invert and multiply. 11+x+h−11+xh=1+x−(1+x+h)(1+x+h)(1+x)h combine fractions in the numerator. =1+x−1−x−h(1+x+h)(1+x)h =−h(1+x+h)(1+x)h  since  AB÷CD=AB⋅DC −h(1+x+h)(1+x)⋅1h  since  AB⋅CD=ACBD =−hh(1+x+h)(1+x) =−1(1+x+h)(1+x)
