Decompose 6/x into two fractions. Please, show the steps.

6*(1/x)

6*(1/x)

How silly of me to forget the basics. I am thinking about learning calculus 1 after precalculus. Am I truly ready?

In your previous "decomposing fractions" post, you accepted writing the given fraction as the sum of two fractions. If that is what you mean, 6/x= 1/x+ 5/x= 2/x+ 4/x= 3/x+ 3/x.

Very cool. Thanks.
