Question

Simplify: a+1/a - a/a+1

Please help, I think that there might be two answers? Thank you so much!

Answer 1

so what you should do is mulitply
`(a+1)/(a)` by
`(a+1)/(a+1)` and multiply
`(a)/(a+1)` by
`(a)/(a)`=
`((a+1)(a+1))/((a)(a+1))- ((a)(a))/((a)(a+1)) = ((a+1)^(2)-(a^(2)))/((a)(a+1))`
