Question 360217: Please help me solve this equation: (w^2-y^2) * (w^2+wy+y^2)
____________________________
(w^3-y^3)* (w^2+2wy+y^2)
I just dont understand it? That is a fraction by the way

Assume the problem is:

We have to factor here, we have the difference of squares the difference of cubes

We can also factor (w^2+2wy+y^2)

Look at all we can cancel here: (w-y), (w+y) and (w^2+wy+y^2), that gives us:
