OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \bf \cfrac{12b^3c}{c^5}\cdot \cfrac{3c}{4b^2}\implies \cfrac{(\cancel{4}\cdot 3)bbbc}{ccccc}\cdot \cfrac{3ccc}{4bb}\implies \cfrac{\cancel{4}\cdot {\color{brown}{ 3}}\cancel{bb}{\color{brown}{ b }}\cancel{c}\cdot {\color{brown}{ 3 }}\cancel{c}}{\cancel{c}{\color{brown}{ ccc}} \cancel{c}\cancel{4}\cancel{bb}} \\ \quad \\ \cfrac{9b}{c^3}\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

atop is left only with 3 * 3 * b -> 9b botom is -> ccc -> \(c^3\)
