I need quick help with this Algebra fraction problem! Simplify completely. I could never figure out how to multiply three fractions together. (see image attached)
Wow. This is going to take a while. I'll be back in a second.
Thank you @ScarlettBlack :D:D
Sure thing. If I can't help I'll try to recommend someone who can.
I don't want to give you the direct answer but I can tell you that in its simplified for the answer is very short.
The first two are multiplied and the third is divided so you can just multiply the first two and then divide that answer by the third fraction.
@ColePatrick does that make sense?
@ScarlettBlack Yeah. I'm multiplying the first two now.
It's a bit more difficult to divide the two fractions. Let me know if you need any other help.
Unfortunately I have to log off now but I will be back as soon as possible.
Just mention my username and I'll get it.
Ok thanks :D So I have 4/5x(x-5) / 28/x^2-25
@ScarlettBlack
Let me multiply by the reciprocal and see what that gives me.
ok
@ScarlettBlack Lol that didn't work xD
Haha. Ok so the 4/5x (x-5) is correct. Then you just have to divide that by 28/x^2-25
You should get x+5 / 35x I have to go now but if you need anything else just message me ok?
