Question

$$\frac{9}{d+2}\cdot\frac{2\ d-16}{d-8}=$$

Evaluate

$\frac{18}{d+2}$

Short Solution Steps

Factor the expressions that are not already factored in $\frac{2d-16}{d-8}$.

$$\frac{9}{d+2}\times \frac{2\left(d-8\right)}{d-8}$$

Cancel out $d-8$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{9}{d+2}\times 2$$

Express $\frac{9}{d+2}\times 2$ as a single fraction.

$$\frac{9\times 2}{d+2}$$

Multiply $9$ and $2$ to get $18$.

$$\frac{18}{d+2}$$

Expand

$\frac{18}{d+2}$

Short Solution Steps

Factor the expressions that are not already factored in $\frac{2d-16}{d-8}$.

$$\frac{9}{d+2}\times \frac{2\left(d-8\right)}{d-8}$$

Cancel out $d-8$ in both numerator and denominator.

$$\frac{9}{d+2}\times 2$$

Express $\frac{9}{d+2}\times 2$ as a single fraction.

$$\frac{9\times 2}{d+2}$$

Multiply $9$ and $2$ to get $18$.

$$\frac{18}{d+2}$$
