| ① | Multiply $6$ by $ \dfrac{x^2}{3} $ to get $ \dfrac{ 6x^2 }{ 3 } $. Step 1: Write $ 6 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{1} $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} 6 \cdot \frac{x^2}{3} & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{6}{\color{red}{1}} \cdot \frac{x^2}{3} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 6 \cdot x^2 }{ 1 \cdot 3 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 6x^2 }{ 3 } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ② | Multiply $ \dfrac{6x^2}{3} $ by $ x $ to get $ \dfrac{ 6x^3 }{ 3 } $. Step 1: Write $ x $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{6x^2}{3} \cdot x & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{6x^2}{3} \cdot \frac{x}{\color{red}{1}} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 6x^2 \cdot x }{ 3 \cdot 1 } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 6x^3 }{ 3 } \end{aligned} $$ |
| ③ | Add $9x^3$ and $ \dfrac{6x^3}{3} $ to get $ \dfrac{ \color{purple}{ 33x^3 } }{ 3 }$. Step 1: Write $ 9x^3 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: To add raitonal expressions, both fractions must have the same denominator. |
| ④ | Add $ \dfrac{33x^3}{3} $ and $ 2 $ to get $ \dfrac{ \color{purple}{ 33x^3+6 } }{ 3 }$. Step 1: Write $ 2 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{ 1 } $ in the denominator. Step 2: To add raitonal expressions, both fractions must have the same denominator. |
