6x - 3 + 2x/y
Can you please show me how you got this answer, because when you multiply your answer by the original divisor it does not come up to the original problem. Help I do not understand this.
When contesting an answer, it'd be nice if you showed your own steps. I assert that
(6x - 3 + 2x/y) * 2xy
= (6x)(2xy)-(3)(2xy)+(2x/y)(2xy)
= 12x^2y - 6xy + 4x^2
Now, if you just want a single fraction, Only the 2x cancels in all terms in the numerator, and you have
6xy - 3y + 2x
