Full solution

Q. Multiply. Write your answer in simplest form.\newline5v33v×(5v+1)\frac{5v - 3}{3v} \times (5v + 1)
  1. Identify Terms, Set Up: Identify the terms to be multiplied and set up the multiplication.\newlineWe have the fraction (5v3)/(3v)(5v - 3)/(3v) and the term (5v+1)(5v + 1). To multiply these, we simply multiply the numerators together and the denominators together.\newlineCalculation: (5v3)/(3v)×(5v+1)/(1)(5v - 3)/(3v) \times (5v + 1)/(1)
  2. Multiply Numerators: Multiply the numerators together.\newlineWe multiply (5v3)(5v - 3) by (5v+1)(5v + 1) to get the new numerator.\newlineCalculation: (5v3)×(5v+1)=25v2+5v15v3=25v210v3(5v - 3) \times (5v + 1) = 25v^2 + 5v - 15v - 3 = 25v^2 - 10v - 3
  3. Multiply Denominators: Multiply the denominators together.\newlineSince the denominator of the second term is 11, multiplying by 11 does not change the value of the first denominator.\newlineCalculation: 3v×1=3v3v \times 1 = 3v
  4. Combine to Form Fraction: Combine the new numerator and denominator to form the new fraction. We place the new numerator over the new denominator. Calculation: (25v210v3)/(3v)(25v^2 - 10v - 3)/(3v)
  5. Simplify Fraction: Simplify the fraction if possible.\newlineIn this case, there are no common factors between the numerator and the denominator, so the fraction is already in its simplest form.\newlineCalculation: The fraction remains (25v210v3)/(3v)(25v^2 - 10v - 3)/(3v)
