Solve 2/h+1+2/1

$$\frac { 2 } { h + 1 } + \frac { 2 } { 1 }$$

Evaluate

$$\frac{2\left(h+2\right)}{h+1}$$

Short Solution Steps

Anything divided by one gives itself.

$$\frac{2}{h+1}+2$$

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Multiply 2 times \frac{h+1}{h+1}.

$$\frac{2}{h+1}+\frac{2\left(h+1\right)}{h+1}$$

Since \frac{2}{h+1} and \frac{2\left(h+1\right)}{h+1} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{2+2\left(h+1\right)}{h+1}$$

Do the multiplications in 2+2\left(h+1\right).

$$\frac{2+2h+2}{h+1}$$

Combine like terms in 2+2h+2.

$$\frac{4+2h}{h+1}$$

Factor

$$\frac{2\left(h+2\right)}{h+1}$$
