Okay, this one is a bit more complicated to me....How do I multiply these rational expressions:

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ x ^{3}+1 }{ x ^{3}-x ^{2}+x}\times \frac{ 6x }{ -54x-54 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first factorize ur right hand side 6(x)/(-54(x+1))

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then u can cancel the top and bottom ( 6/(-54) will be (1/(-9) )

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cancel the top and bottom?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

top n bottom of the right hand side u know 6 is the numerator and 54 is on the denominator rite? just simplify it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

But it's 6x

OpenStudy (anonymous):

u still can cancel the coefficient.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

for example u have 2x/4 u simplify it it will be x/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh okay, what about the left side?
