Question

Please help. (Expression below)

Answer 1

\[\frac{ 5 }{ w-1 } \times \frac{ w-1 }{ 25w-50 }\]

Answer 2

looking at the problem, what can you cancel out?

Answer 3

w-1

Answer 4

therefore:

1/w-1 * w-1/5w-50

Do it to the opposite side now and keep cancelling until you cannot simplify anymore.

Answer 5

In other words:

1. Cross divide one side.
2. Do it to the other.
3. Now cancel out top and bottom.

Answer 6

correct. and can you factor 25w-50?

Answer 7

Factor? Sorry, what do you mean?

Answer 8

5( w-2) ?

Answer 9

not quite.
5(w-2)=5w-10 but you want 25w-50
