This is a quick example of factoring the numerator and denominator of a combined fraction where all the factors are separated in order to find those that divide to one.

A short reminder of how to reduce first and then multiply two numerical fractions. Then we apply the same priciples to reducing like factors in an example with more than one variable and numerical…

This shows how to find the least common denominator of two fractions, nothing more.

A second look at factoring the top and bottom of a fraction in algebra that then reduces that fraction.
|
|
This shows how to factor the numerator and denominator of a fraction in algebra so that we can reduce the same factors ono the top and the bottom because they divide to one.
|
|
This shows the last step in simplifying a rational expression, i.e. dividing out factors that reduce to one.

For an equation with f(x) equal to a rational expression, this shows how to write the substitution and simplification when putting in a particular value for x.

Division by zero is not possible, so this shiows how to determine what variable value(s) are not alloowed to be inserted into a particular fraction in algebra.
