Short Solution Steps

\frac{2 4}{x - 3} + \frac{1 5}{3 x + 1}

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of

x - 3

and

3 x + 1

is

(x - 3) (3 x + 1)

. Multiply

\frac{2 4}{x - 3}

times

\frac{3 x + 1}{3 x + 1}

. Multiply

\frac{1 5}{3 x + 1}

times

\frac{x - 3}{x - 3}

.

\frac{2 4 ( 3 x + 1 )}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )} + \frac{1 5 ( x - 3 )}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

Since

\frac{2 4 ( 3 x + 1 )}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

and

\frac{1 5 ( x - 3 )}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

\frac{2 4 ( 3 x + 1 ) + 1 5 ( x - 3 )}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

Do the multiplications in

24 (3 x + 1) + 15 (x - 3)

.

\frac{7 2 x + 2 4 + 1 5 x - 4 5}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

Combine like terms in

72 x + 24 + 15 x - 45

.

\frac{8 7 x - 2 1}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

Expand

(x - 3) (3 x + 1)

.

\frac{8 7 x - 2 1}{3 x ^{2} - 8 x - 3}

Factor

\frac{3 ( 2 9 x - 7 )}{( x - 3 ) ( 3 x + 1 )}

\frac{24\left(3x+1\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)}+\frac{15\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)}

To add or subtract expressions, expand them to make their denominators the same. Least common multiple of x-3 and 3x+1 is \left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right). Multiply \frac{24}{x-3} times \frac{3x+1}{3x+1}. Multiply \frac{15}{3x+1} times \frac{x-3}{x-3}.

\frac{24\left(3x+1\right)+15\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)}

Since \frac{24\left(3x+1\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)} and \frac{15\left(x-3\right)}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.

\frac{72x+24+15x-45}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)}

Do the multiplications in 24\left(3x+1\right)+15\left(x-3\right).

\frac{87x-21}{\left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right)}

Combine like terms in 72x+24+15x-45.

\frac{87x-21}{3x^{2}-8x-3}

Expand \left(x-3\right)\left(3x+1\right).
