Simplify the Expression: 8x²/4x + 3x Step by Step

Question

$\frac{8x^2}{4x}+3x=$

00:00 Let's break down the 8 into small factors

00:05 Let's convert the exponent into a multiplication exercise

00:11 Let's rewrite the fraction after the changes

00:20 We can use this form of writing to reduce the fraction

00:26 Let's write it again, after reduction

00:27 We're left with a simple addition exercise

00:30 And that's the solution!

Let's break down the fraction's numerator into an expression:

$8x^2=4\times2\times x\times x$

And now the expression will be:

$\frac{4\times2\times x\times x}{4x}+3x=$

Let's reduce and get:

$2x+3x=5x$

$5x$
