Question

How is 8x/(x-2) simplified to 8/(1-(2/x))? This is from PS1 1D-1 letter g.

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 8x }{ x-2 }=\frac{ 8x }{x(1-\frac{ 2 }{ x} )}=\frac{ 8 }{1-\frac{ 2 }{ x } }\]

Answer 2

Thanks! I had figured it out already, but at least your reply confirms what I got. I should have just played around a little bit with the algebra before posting :)
