Problem 2 Got It? Reasoning: Is it possible to add the rational expressions in Problem 2 by finding a common denominator, but not the least common denominator? Explain.

No, only the least common denominator can be used when adding or subtracting rational expressions.

Yes, however the denominator could have to be factored more and there would be additional, incorrect limitations on x.
