$$\frac{x^{2}}{x^{2} + 4}$$

x^2/(x^2 + 4)

Detail solution

Apply the quotient rule, which is:

$\frac{d}{d x} \frac{f{\left(x \right)}}{g{\left(x \right)}} = \frac{- f{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)} + g{\left(x \right)} \frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}}{g^{2}{\left(x \right)}}$

$f{\left(x \right)} = x^{2}$ and $g{\left(x \right)} = x^{2} + 4$ .

To find $\frac{d}{d x} f{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Apply the power rule: $x^{2}$ goes to $2 x$
To find $\frac{d}{d x} g{\left(x \right)}$ :
1. Differentiate $x^{2} + 4$ term by term:
  1. The derivative of the constant $4$ is zero.
  2. Apply the power rule: $x^{2}$ goes to $2 x$
  The result is: $2 x$
Now plug in to the quotient rule:

$\frac{- 2 x^{3} + 2 x \left(x^{2} + 4\right)}{\left(x^{2} + 4\right)^{2}}$
Now simplify:

$\frac{8 x}{\left(x^{2} + 4\right)^{2}}$

The answer is:

$\frac{8 x}{\left(x^{2} + 4\right)^{2}}$
