Question

Simplify the product 5/n+1 times n+1/n+3

Answer is 5/n+3 = simple

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

5n+1/n+3

Answer 2

`(5)/(n+1)* (n+1)/(n+3)=(5)/(n+3)`

Explanation:

Given the expression

`(5)/(n+1)* (n+1)/(n+3)`

Let us simplify

`(5)/(n+1)* (n+1)/(n+3)`

`\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad (a)/(b)* (c)/(d)=(a\:* \:c)/(b\:* \:d)`

`=(5\left(n+1\right))/(\left(n+1\right)\left(n+3\right))`

`\mathrm{Cancel\:the\:common\:factor:}\:n+1`

`=(5)/(n+3)`

Therefore,

`(5)/(n+1)* (n+1)/(n+3)=(5)/(n+3)`
