Complete the corresponding expression for the denominator
Upon examining the problem, proceed to write down the expression on the right side as a fraction (using the fact that dividing a number by 1 doesn't change its value):
Remember the fraction reduction operation,
In order for the fraction on the left side to be deemed reducible, we want all the terms in its denominator to have a common factor. Additionally, we want to reduce the number 19 in order to obtain the number 1 as well as reducing the term from the fraction's numerator given that in the expression on the right side it doesn't appear. Therefore we'll choose the expression:
Let's verify that this choice results in the expression on the right side:
Therefore this choice is indeed correct.
In other words - the correct answer is answer D.
