Note: a rational
expression is in simplest
form when the numerator
and denominator have no
common factors other
than 1 or -1
Steps to simplify rational
expressions:
1) Factor the numerator
2) Factor the denominator
3) Cross out the equivalent forms

Multiplying Rational expressions

Note: We multiply and divide
rational expressions the same
way we multiply and divide
fractions. Except now we have
fractions that have polynomials as
numerators and denominators.

Recall: To add and subtract fractions we need to have common denominators.
To add and subtract rational expressions we also need common denominators!

Steps to solving rational equations:
Side not e s:
1) Find the LCD.
2) Multiply both sides of the equations by LCD to clear all fractions.
3) Solve the equation by isolating the variable.
4) Make sure to check for extraneous solutions
Note: The process of cross multiplying or multiplying both sides of a rational
equation by the LCD may create an ______________________________.
These are solutions that solve the new equations but not the original equation.
Examples: Solve. Make sure to check for extraneous solutions.
