Question

Evaluate the following (a) 15x²y ÷ 3y2 ​

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to the problem is (5x^2)/y

Answer 2

$\frac{5 {x}^{2} }{y}$

Answer:

Write the problem as a mathematical expression.

$15 {x}^{2} y \div 3 {y}^{2}$

Rewrite the division as a fraction.

$\frac{15 {x}^{2}y }{3 {y}^{2} }$

Cancel the common factor of

15 and 3

$Factor 33 out of 15x^{2} y \\ \\ \frac{3(5 {x}^{2} y)}{3 {y}^{2} }$

Cancel the common factors.

$\frac{5 {x}^{2} y}{ {y}^{2} }$

Cancel the common factor of

$y \: and \: {y}^{2}$

ans-

$\frac{5 {x}^{2} }{y}$
