Solve x+x(-c/x^2)

$$x + x ( \frac { - c } { x ^ { 2 } } )$$

Evaluate

$$x-\frac{c}{x}$$

Short Solution Steps

Express x\times \frac{-c}{x^{2}} as a single fraction.

$$x+\frac{x\left(-c\right)}{x^{2}}$$

Cancel out x in both numerator and denominator.

$$x+\frac{-c}{x}$$

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

$$\frac{xx}{x}+\frac{-c}{x}$$

Since \frac{xx}{x} and \frac{-c}{x} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

$$\frac{xx-c}{x}$$

Do the multiplications in xx-c.

$$\frac{x^{2}-c}{x}$$

Factor

$$\frac{x^{2}-c}{x}$$
