Answer: To divide two rational expressions, you need to first find the least common denominator (LCD) of the two expressions. The LCD is the least common multiple of the two denominators.
In this case, the rational expressions are x/(3x-1) and (x-2)/(2x). The LCD of these two expressions is (3x-1)(2x), which can be factored as 6x(x-1).
To divide the two rational expressions, you need to express each expression as a fraction with the LCD as the denominator.
The first expression, x/(3x-1), can be rewritten as (x * (2x))/(3x-1 * (2x)) = (2x^2)/(6x^2-2x).
The second expression, (x-2)/(2x), can be rewritten as ((x-2) * (3x-1))/(2x * (3x-1)) = (3x^2-3x+2)/(6x^2-2x).
To divide these two expressions, you can divide the numerators and the denominators separately:
(2x^2)/(6x^2-2x) ÷ (3x^2-3x+2)/(6x^2-2x)
= (2x^2) ÷ (3x^2-3x+2)
= (2/3)x^2 ÷ (x^2-x+2/3)
Therefore, the quotient of the rational expressions x/(3x-1) and (x-2)/(2x) is (2/3)
