  • Question
  • Simplify ( 6a-2bc-3/4ab-3c2 ) ÷ ( 5a-3 b2c-1/3ab-2c3 )


  • Options
  • A. 9/10ac
  • B. 9/10ac-1
  • C. 9/10ac2
  • D. 9/10ac-3

  • Correct Answer
  • 9/10ac-1 

    Explanation

    Given equation is,
    ( 6a-2bc-3/4ab-3c2 ) ÷ ( 5a-3 b2c-1/3ab-2c3 )
    Apply the algebra law a ÷ b = a x 1/b
    = ( 6a-2bc-3/4ab-3c2 ) x ( 3ab-2c3/5a-3 b2c-1 )
    = ( 6a-2 bc-3 x 3ab-2c3) / ( 4ab-3c2 x 5a-3b2c-1 )
    Apply the law of Fractional Exponents and Laws of Exponents
    (am)(an) = am+n
    am÷an=am-n
    Or
    am/an=am-n
    = 18a-2 + 1 b1 - 2 c -3 + 3 / 20a1 - 3 b-3 + 2 c2 - 1
    = 9a-1b-1c0/ 10a - 2 b-1c1
    = ( 9/10 ) a-1 + 2b-1 + 1 c0 - 1
    = ( 9/10 ) a1b0 c-1
    = ( 9/10 ) ac-1 [? b0 = 1]
