Answer:
3(p-q)/2(p+q)(p-q)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1)
Factor out the common term 3.
3(p-q)/4p * 2p/(p^2-q^2)
Step2)
Use Difference of Squares: a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)
3(p-q)/4p * 2p/(p+q)(p-q)
Step 3)
Cancel p.
3(p-q)/4 * 2/(p+q)(p-q)
Step 4)
use the rule: a/b * b/c =ac/bd
3(p-q) * 2/4(p+q)(p-q)
Step5)
Simplify: 3(p−q)*2 to 6(p-q)
6(p-q)/4(p+q)(p-q)
Final answer is 3(p-q)/2(p+q)(p-q)
