Answer:


(10x^2+6x)/(6x^2) and
(21x)/(6x^2).

Explanation:

The given expression is:


(5x+3)/(3x) and
(7x)/(3x^2).

The least common denominator is:
6x^2.

We collect LCM for the denominator to obtain;


(2x(5x+3))/(6x^2) and
(3(7x))/(6x^2).

We multiply out the parenthesis to obtain;


(10x^2+6x)/(6x^2) and
(21x)/(6x^2).

Therefore the correct answer is B or the second option.
