Simplify 1/x+1/(x^2)+1/(x^3)

Problem

1/x+1/(x^2)+1/(x^3)

Solution

1. Identify the least common denominator for the three fractions, which is x^3

2. Rewrite each fraction with the common denominator by multiplying the numerator and denominator by the necessary power of x

3. Multiply the first term by (x^2)/(x^2) to get (x^2)/(x^3)

4. Multiply the second term by x/x to get x/(x^3)

5. Combine the numerators over the common denominator.

Final Answer

1/x+1/(x^2)+1/(x^3)=(x^2+x+1)/(x^3)
