Please help me on my hw I need help on #3

Answer 1

The expression to be simplified is,

`(6)/(6+12x)`

It can be written as:

`(6)/(6+12x)=(6)/(6+6*2x)`

Take the common factors outside from the right hand side of the above equation.

`(6)/(6+12x)=(6)/(6(1+2x))`

Cancel out the common factor 6 in the numerator and denominator of the fraction at the right hand side of the above equation.

`(6)/(6+12x)=(1)/((1+2x))`

Therefore, the correct expression is,

`(6)/(6+12x)=(1)/((1+2x))`
