Question 77979: ok i have all the multiplying,and dividing fractions that look like this
(24r^s^) x (21s)
______ ___ = ????
(3s) ---- (r)
And i cant find any sites that will help me with them. also i have dividing a polynomia by a monomial, Whats a monomial?, and solving fractional equations that have to have answers like x=24 or u=3. i am completely stumped and in danger of failing the eight grade. plz help me i really want to go to high school. thank you for you time and plz try your best to help me

If you have something like this:
note: I cannot see any exponents over r and s, so I'll assume they are both 2
When you divide 2 like bases with exponents, you subtract the exponents (ie )


Divide the common bases (24/3=8) and subtract the exponents

When you multiply common bases, you add the exponents (ie )




Now divide


So this is the simplified answer

Whenever you say you are dividing a polynomial (poly-many nomial-name) over a monomial (mono-one, nomial-name). In a sense these are monomials:
x,5x,2xy,10,etc
Basically any terms that are alone are monomials(they have 1 term); where multiple terms that are added or subtracted are polynomials (they have many terms):
polynomials - , ,etc

I'm not sure what you mean by this "and solving fractional equations that have to have answers like x=24 or u=3"
