Answer
Does not make sense
Work Step by Step
We have the given rational expressions:
$\frac{7}{14x}$ and $\frac{7}{14+x}$
Now, simplify the first rational expression:
$\begin{align}
& \frac{7}{14x}=\frac{7}{7\times 2\times x} \\
& =\frac{1}{2x}
\end{align}$
Further simplify the second rational expression:
$\frac{7}{14+x}$
The numerator and the denominator of the above rational expression do not have any common factors, so the above expression is already in its simplest form.
So, the rational expressions $\frac{7}{14x}\ \text{ and }\ \frac{7}{14+x}$ cannot be simplified by dividing each numerator and each denominator by $7$.
Thus, the given statement does not make sense.
