Final answer:
The expression 6w-48/6w simplifies to 1 - 8/w by dividing both terms by the common factor 6w. However, the term - 48/6w cannot be simplified further without the value of 'w'.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression 6w-48/6w can be simplified by removing factors of 1. The factor that is common in the numerator and the denominator is '6w'.
We can simplify the expression by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by '6w' which is the common factor. Doing this, we get (6w/6w) - (48/6w) which simplifies to 1 - (48/6w).
However, because 48 is not a multiple of 6w, we cannot simplify further without knowing the value of 'w'. If we are intended to remove the common factors only, then the simplified expression we obtain is 1 - 8/w.
