Full solution

Q. Divide. Simplify your answer.\newline17n2p212p÷13np\frac{17n^2p^2}{12p} \div 13np
  1. Rewrite as multiplication: Rewrite the division as a multiplication by taking the reciprocal of the second fraction. So, (17n2p2/12p)÷(13np)(17n^2p^2/12p) \div (13np) becomes (17n2p2/12p)×(1/13np)(17n^2p^2/12p) \times (1/13np).
  2. Multiply numerators and denominators: Multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators. So, (17n2p2/12p)×(1/13np)(17n^2p^2/12p) \times (1/13np) becomes (17n2p2)/(12p×13np)(17n^2p^2) / (12p \times 13np).
  3. Simplify by canceling common factors: Simplify the expression by canceling out common factors. In the numerator, we have n2n^2 and p2p^2, and in the denominator, we have nn and pp, which can be simplified. So, (17n2p2)/(12×13np)(17n^2p^2) / (12 \times 13np) simplifies to (17np)/(12×13)(17np) / (12 \times 13).
  4. Multiply constants in denominator: Multiply the constants in the denominator. So, (17np)/(12×13)(17np) / (12 \times 13) becomes (17np)/(156)(17np) / (156).
  5. Write in simplest form: Write the answer in the simplest form. The fraction (17np)/(156)(17np) / (156) is already in its simplest form because 1717 and 156156 have no common factors other than 11.
