① | Step 1: Write $ 9 $ as a fraction by putting $ \color{red}{1} $ in the denominator. Step 2: Multiply numerators and denominators. Step 3: Simplify numerator and denominator. $$ \begin{aligned} 9 \cdot \frac{x}{x-x^2} & \xlongequal{\text{Step 1}} \frac{9}{\color{red}{1}} \cdot \frac{x}{x-x^2} \xlongequal{\text{Step 2}} \frac{ 9 \cdot x }{ 1 \cdot \left( x-x^2 \right) } = \\[1ex] & \xlongequal{\text{Step 3}} \frac{ 9x }{ x-x^2 } = \frac{9x}{-x^2+x} \end{aligned} $$ |
