| ① | Multiply $4$ by $ \dfrac{x}{x} $ to get $ \dfrac{ 4x }{ x } $. Step 1: Write $ 4 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{1} $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} 4 \cdot \frac{x}{x} & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{4}{\color{red}{1}} \cdot \frac{x}{x} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 4 \cdot x }{ 1 \cdot x } \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 4x }{ x } \end{aligned} $$ |
