Q. Divide. Write your answer in simplest form.\newline30v12v2÷6v2\frac{30v - 12}{v^2} \div \frac{6}{v^2}
  1. Rewrite Division as Multiplication: Rewrite the division as multiplication by the reciprocal.\newlineThe expression 30v12v2÷6v230v - \frac{12}{v^2} \div \frac{6}{v^2} can be rewritten as (30v12)/v2×v26(30v - 12)/v^2 \times \frac{v^2}{6}.
  2. Simplify by Multiplying: Simplify the expression by multiplying the numerators and denominators.\newlineWhen we multiply (30v12)/v2×v2/6(30v - 12)/v^2 \times v^2/6, the v2v^2 terms cancel out because they are in both the numerator and the denominator.\newlineThis simplifies to (30v12)/6(30v - 12)/6.
  3. Divide Numerator by Denominator: Divide each term in the numerator by the denominator. Divide 30v30v by 66 to get 5v5v and 12-12 by 66 to get 2-2. The simplified expression is 5v25v - 2.
  4. Check for Common Factors: Check for any common factors that can be further simplified. There are no common factors between 5v5v and 2-2, so the expression is already in its simplest form.
