Answer:

There are four different steps involved in determining extraneous solutions in any of the rational equation.

Explanation:

Steps involved are:

1. The very step involved is to find the "common denominator".

2. The second step includes multiplying every single thing with the "common denominator".

3. The third step includes "simplifying".

4. The last and the fourth step involves checking the answer obtained in order to assure that there's no "extraneous solution".

Example of an extraneous solution in a rational equation:

4÷x+3 + 7÷x²+3x = 4-x÷x
