Question 34674: Whenever a problem contains fractions, present your answer in fractional form; reduce to lowest terms, but do not change improper fractions to mixed numbers. No answers are to be expressed as mixed numbers. All fractional coefficients and any multi-term numerators/denominators must be enclosed in parentheses. Assume that all variables in any denominator are nonzero. Express all answers with positive exponents only; evaluate exponents when possible.
