Math Problem Statement

(x/x+1) + (1/x+1)

Solution

The expression you've provided is:

xx+1+1x+1\frac{x}{x+1} + \frac{1}{x+1}

Since both fractions have the same denominator (x+1)(x+1), you can combine them into a single fraction:

x+1x+1\frac{x + 1}{x+1}

Now, since the numerator and denominator are the same, this simplifies to:

11

So, the simplified expression is:

xx+1+1x+1=1\frac{x}{x+1} + \frac{1}{x+1} = 1

Tip: When combining fractions, always check if they have the same denominator. If they do, you can directly add or subtract the numerators.
