Answer

x−2x2+5\dfrac{x-2}{x^{2}+5}

Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. Rewrite the complex fraction as a single fraction.

    x2−2xxx2+5=x2−2xx(x2+5)\frac{ \frac{x^{2} - 2x}{x} }{ x^{2} + 5 } = \frac{x^{2} - 2x}{x(x^{2} + 5)}
  2. Factor the numerator.

    x2−2x=x(x−2)x^{2} - 2x = x(x - 2)

    Substitute into the fraction:

    x(x−2)x(x2+5)\frac{x(x - 2)}{x(x^{2} + 5)}
  3. Cancel the common factor xx (for x≠0x \neq 0).

    x−2x2+5\frac{x - 2}{x^{2} + 5}

    \dfrac{x-2}{x^{2}+5}
