Question

Can anybody please help me simplify this?

Answer 1

How do I start :(?

Answer 2

Start with same -> change -> flip

Answer 3

\[\frac{5x^2}{4y^5} \div \frac{-15x^4y^6}{35y^5x^3}\]
keep the first fraction the same.
Change the division to multiplication.
Flip the second fraction.

Answer 4

after I flip it, how do I simplify it?

Answer 5

Multiply straight across:
numerator * numerator
denominator*denominator

Answer 6

\[\frac{ 175x ^{5} y ^{5}}{ -60y ^{11}x ^{4} }\]

Answer 7

@gypsy1274 is this correct?

Answer 8

Yes, but it still needs to be simplified.

Answer 9

can you please help?

Answer 10

Start with the coefficients. \(\frac{175}{-60}\) Find a common factor and divide top and bottom by that number.

Answer 11

is D the correct answer?

Answer 12

yes it is.

Answer 13

\[\frac{5x^2}{4y^5} \times \frac{35y^5x^3}{-15x^4y^6} = \frac{175x^5y^5}{-60x^4y^{11}} \div \frac{5}{5}= \frac{-35x}{12y^6}\]

Answer 14

Thanks a lot!!!
