Question

What is the simplified form of ?

Answer 1

4x/x^2-4 divided by 8x^2/x^2+4x+4

Answer 2

\[\Large \frac{\frac{4x}{x^2 - 4}}{ \frac{8x^2}{x^2+ 4x + 4}}\]When you have to divide a fraction by another fraction we multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second fraction\[\Large \frac{4x}{x^2 - 4} \times \frac{x^2+ 4x + 4}{8x^2}\]

Answer 3

4x^3+16x^2+16x/8x^4-32x^2

Answer 4

what?

Answer 5

i multiplied like you said

Answer 6

No.. don't multiply it now ,you can just cancel out few things and it'll be simplified :)

Answer 7

ohh okay lol my mistake

Answer 8

\[\Large \frac{\cancel{4x}}{x^2 - 4} \times \frac{x^2+ 4x + 4}{\cancel{8x^2}^{2x}}\]

Answer 9

oh so you just see what things can match kinda and then cancel

Answer 10

\[\Large \frac{1}{x^2 - 4} \times \frac{x^2+ 4x + 4}{2x}\]

Answer 11

Yes exactly :D

Answer 12

Now factorise x^2 + 4x + 4

Answer 13

that would be (x+2)^2

Answer 14

Yes

factorise x^2-4 now :)

Answer 15

(x+2)(x-2)

Answer 16

so you could cancel out 1 of the (x+2)^2 on both sides. then get 1/x-2 * x+2/2x

Answer 17

x+2/2x(x-2) would be the answer ?

Answer 18

Yes :D Very Good :D @candygirl7655


*sorry got disconnected

Answer 19

thank you

Answer 20

Anytime :)
