1) 3n / n-1 - 1 / 3= -40/ 3n - 18
2) 2x / x-2 + 15 / x^2 - 7x + 10 = 3/x-5
im having trouble with these fractional equations . I'd appreciate any help. thanks a lot

Now, to simplify this equation you will want to multiply both sides by the common denominator. In this case the denominators are n - 1, 3, and 3(n - 6). What is the common denominator of these three expressions?
