Answer 1

Factorise

12pq+18p^2q^2-9p^2q

Answer:

3pq(4+6pq-3p)

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP1:

p2 Simplify ————————— (3p - q)2

Equation at the end of step1:

p2 (12pq - (18 • —————————)) - q2 (3p - q)2

STEP2:Equation at the end of step 2

(2•32p2) (12pq - —————————) - q2 (3p - q)2

STEP3:Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction

 3.1   Subtracting a fraction from a whole

Rewrite the whole as a fraction using  (3p-q)2   as the denominator :

12pq 12pq • (3p - q)2 12pq = ———— = ———————————————— 1 (3p - q)2

Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
