Question

Simplify the quantity x plus 6 over 12, all over the quantity x minus 8 over 10.

Answer 1

I think it should be 5(x+6) over 6(x-8).
Doing the same problem haha.

Answer 2

we have

`((x+6)/12)/((x-8)/10)`

Remember that

The division is the inverse of the multiplication

so

`((x+6)/12)/((x-8)/10)=(x+6)/(12) *(10)/(x-8)`

Simplify

`(x+6)/(12) *(10)/(x-8)=(5(x+6))/(6(x-8))`

therefore

the answer is

`(5(x+6))/(6(x-8))`
