Step 1.1

Factor $x$ out of $x^{2} (x - 1) (x + 5)$ .

$\frac{x ((x (x - 1)) (x + 5))}{x (x - 1)}$

Step 1.2

Cancel the common factors.

Step 1.2.1

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{x ((x (x - 1)) (x + 5))}{x (x - 1)}$

Step 1.2.2

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{(x (x - 1)) (x + 5)}{x - 1}$

$\frac{(x (x - 1)) (x + 5)}{x - 1}$

$\frac{(x (x - 1)) (x + 5)}{x - 1}$

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of $x - 1$ .

Step 2.1

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{x (x - 1) (x + 5)}{x - 1}$

Step 2.2

Divide $(x) (x + 5)$ by $1$ .

$(x) (x + 5)$

$(x) (x + 5)$

Step 3

Apply the distributive property.

$x \cdot x + x \cdot 5$

Step 4

Simplify the expression.

Step 4.1

Multiply $x$ by $x$ .

$x^{2} + x \cdot 5$

Step 4.2

Move $5$ to the left of $x$ .

$x^{2} + 5 x$

$x^{2} + 5 x$
