Q. Simplify the expression completely if possible.8x316x2−64xAnswer:
Factor out common terms: Factor out the common terms in the numerator.We can factor out a 16x from the numerator to get 16x(x−4).
Simplify by dividing: Simplify the expression by dividing the numerator by the denominator.We have (16x(x−4))/(8x3). We can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 8x to simplify the expression.
Perform division: Perform the division.(8x316x(x−4))=x22(x−4).
Check for further simplification: Check for any further simplification.Since there are no common factors left in the numerator and denominator and no negative exponents, the expression is fully simplified.
