| ① | Subtract $ \dfrac{10}{h} $ from $ 5h $ to get $ \dfrac{ \color{purple}{ 5h^2-10 } }{ h }$. Step 1: Write $ 5h $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: To subtract raitonal expressions, both fractions must have the same denominator. |
| ② | Subtract $2$ from $ \dfrac{5h^2-10}{h} $ to get $ \dfrac{ \color{purple}{ 5h^2-2h-10 } }{ h }$. Step 1: Write $ 2 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: To subtract raitonal expressions, both fractions must have the same denominator. |
