How to Solve Rational Equations worksheets?

A rational equation is an equation that contains one or more rational expressions. Solving such equations involves eliminating the fractions by finding a common denominator and then solving the resulting polynomial equation.

  1. Factor the denominators: This helps identify the LCD and excluded values.
  2. Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD): Identify the LCD of all rational expressions in the equation.
  3. Multiply Through by the LCD: Multiply both sides of the equation by the LCD to eliminate the denominators.
  4. Solve the Resulting Equation: Solve the simplified equation, which is usually a polynomial equation.
  5. Check for Extraneous Solutions or Excluded Values: Substituting the solutions back into the original equation to ensure they do not make any denominator zero.
