The first step to solve this problem is to write all numerators above the common denominator. √a × [tex] \frac{2 a^{3} - 4 }{a} [/tex] Next you will need to calculate the product [tex] \frac{ \sqrt{a} X (2 a^{3} - 4) }{a} [/tex] Finally,, distribute √a through the parenthesis to get your final answer [tex] \frac{2 a^{3} \sqrt{a} - 4 \sqrt{a} }{a} [/tex] This means that the correct answer to your question is [tex] \frac{2 a^{3} \sqrt{a} - 4 \sqrt{a} }{a} [/tex] .
