Fixing fractions with x within the denominator includes multiplying each the numerator and denominator by an applicable expression to get rid of the variable from the denominator. This method is essential for simplifying and performing operations on rational expressions, that are algebraic fractions.
Eliminating x from the denominator ensures that the ensuing expression is well-defined for all values of x besides those who make the denominator zero. That is important for avoiding division by zero, which is undefined.
