Question

Reduce the fraction to lowest terms m^2/m^2-n^2

Answer 1

`\boxed{\bold{(m^2)/(\left(m+n\right)\left(m-n\right))}}`

Explanation:

Factor
`\bold{m^2-n^2}`

`\bold{\left(m+n\right)\left(m-n\right)}`

Rewrite Equation

`\bold{(m^2)/(\left(m+n\right)\left(m-n\right))}`

Answer 2

`(m^2)/((m+n)(m-n))`

Explanation:

Here we have to simplify the denominator of the expression given in the question.

We will use the formula for

Difference of the squares which us given as under

`a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)`

Let us now simplify the denominator

`m^2-n^2=(m+n)(m-n)`

Hence

Our answer is

`(m^2)/((m+n)(m-n))`
