Answer:

14( x - 3)

Explanation:

1/2x-6 and 2x/7x-21.

simplify (common factors)


(1)/(2(x - 3)),(2x)/(7(x - 3))

Find the LCM (smallest positive number that all of the numbers divide into evenly) of the denominators of those values


2(x−3),7(x−3)

Now we get


14( x - 3)

- if you need any further explanation let me know <3
