Answer:

Option D


(6x^2+2x)/(2x^2+1)Explanations:

The given expression is:


(6+(2)/(x))/(2+(1)/(x^2))

Simplify the numerator:


\begin{gathered} 6\text{ + }(2)/(x) \\ (6x+2)/(x) \end{gathered}

Simplify the denominator:


\begin{gathered} 2+(1)/(x^2) \\ (2x^2+1)/(x^2) \end{gathered}

The complete expression becomes:


((6x+2)/(x))/((2x^2+1)/(x^2))
\begin{gathered} (6x+2)/(x)/(2x^2+1)/(x^2) \\ (6x+2)/(x)\text{ }*(x^2)/(2x^2+1) \\ (x(6x+2))/(2x^2+1) \\ (6x^2+2x)/(2x^2+1) \end{gathered}
