(m - 3) / (3m -9)

OpenStudy (pfenn1):

\[\frac{m-3}{3m-9}\] You can factor 3 out of the denominator and then simplify.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it would be m / m - 9?

OpenStudy (pfenn1):

No. If you factor out the 3 in the denominator, you would have the expression\[\frac{m-3}{3(m-3)}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then what do you do

OpenStudy (pfenn1):

\[\frac{\cancel{m-3}}{3\cancel{(m-3)}}\]So what is your final answer?
