:
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
3.1 Subtracting a fraction from a whole
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x2 as the denominator :
x2 - 2xy (x2 - 2xy) • x2
x2 - 2xy = ———————— = ———————————————
1 x2
Equivalent fraction : The fraction thus generated looks different but has the same value as the whole
Common denominator : The equivalent fraction and the other fraction involved in the calculation share the same denominator
STEP
4
:
Pulling out like terms
4.1 Pull out like factors :
x2 - 2xy = x • (x - 2y)
Adding fractions that have a common denominator :
4.2 Adding up the two equivalent fractions
Add the two equivalent fractions which now have a common denominator
Combine the numerators together, put the sum or difference over the common denominator then reduce to lowest terms if possible:
x • (x-2y) • x2 - (y2) x4 - 2x3y - y2
—————————————————————— = ——————————————
x2 x2
Equation at the end of step

:
(x4 - 2x3y - y2)
(———————————————— - 4xy) + 3y2
x2

:
Rewriting the whole as an Equivalent Fraction
5.1 Subtracting a whole from a fraction
Rewrite the whole as a fraction using x2 as the denominator :
4xy 4xy • x2
4xy = ——— = ————————
1 x2
