Thread: fraction

write as single fraction with no common factors
[1/(x-3)] - [4/(x-2)]


Plse check my ans:

10-3x/ x^2-5x + 6

I think you need parentheses, but other than that, it looks about right. Try this version, with the parentheses included:

(10-3x)/( x^2-5x + 6 )

FYI, a quick way to add/subtract fractions - if you have to solve
A/B - C/D, you can solve it by simply calculating (AD-BC)/(BD). That's how I double-checked you. Similarly, A/B+C/D = (AD+BC)/(BD).
