Question

Simplify the expression:

Answer 1

\[(2-x)/((1/x)-(1/2))\]

Answer 2

It's going to be, \[2x/2-x \]

Simplify the denominator first and you will get \[2-x / 2x\]

then cancel.

Answer 3

i simplifyed the denominator, and got (2-x)/((2-x)/2x) but i have no idea of what to do next...

Answer 4

okay good.

Now you know that if a number stands alone it's actually divided by 1 right? like this
\[(2-x)/1 /(2-x)/2x\]
then apply the rule of multiplication which is for this case : Multiplying the lower part with the upper part and the ones in between together like this
\[(2-x)(2x)/(2-x)(1)\]

after that simplify by canceling the (2-x) from top and bottom and you will get 2x, sorry my mistake the first solution is wrong it should be 2x

Answer 5

ok, thanx alot, i get it now, fanned you

Answer 6

you are most welcome :) thank you

Answer 7

for some strange reason I am bad at maths, even though I gat straight A+ in Computer Science and electronics

Answer 8

no one is bad at mathematics , the ones who are good at it did not understand it at first , but after trying and working hard they have managed to understand it and do well.

Give yourself a chance to understand mathematics; in the end, everything around you, even with computers and electronics, include numbers and some mathematical formuals.

Good luck :)

Answer 9

you are right, thanks for motivation :)

Answer 10

Good luck lil one.
