To simplify the given expression, let's start by canceling out common terms and simplifying:
(a^2 + ax)/x / (ax)/(x^2)
First, let's convert the division sign to multiplication by taking the reciprocal of the second fraction:
(a^2 + ax)/x * (x^2)/(ax)
Next, we can cancel out common factors between the numerators and denominators:
(a(a + x))/(ax) * (x^2)/(ax)
At this point, we can simplify further by canceling out common factors:
(a + x)/(a) * (x^2)/(x)
Now, we can simplify even further by canceling out common factors and multiplying the remaining terms:
(a + x)/(1) * (x)/(1)
Simplifying this expression further gives us the final result:
(a + x) * x
Therefore, the simplified expression is (a + x) * x.
