SOLUTION: When reducing rational expressions determine any restrictions on the variable (5y^2)/(3y-4)?? I know the ansswer is 4/3 I just dont know how to get to that answer.

You CANNOT divide by zero.

So the denominator 3y-4 CANNOT be zero

If it were, then 3y-4=0

Solve for y to get y = 4/3

This is the value that makes the denominator zero, so we have to exclude this value.
