find the quotient 9a^2-16b^2/3a-4b

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

best way is to factor.

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

\[\frac{(3 a-4 b) (3 a+4 b) }{3a-4b}\]

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

both 3a-4b cancels. so the final answer is 3a+4b

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i thought so cause i had...difference of squares (3a-4b)(3a+4b)/(3a-4b) Cancel the 3a-4b from top and bottom: 3a+4b

OpenStudy (saifoo.khan):

Right.
