(6-3x)/(3x^(2)-4x-4)
Factor out the GCF of -3 from each term in the polynomial.
(-3(x)-3(-2))/(3x^(2)-4x-4)
Factor out the GCF of -3 from -3x+6.
(-3(x-2))/(3x^(2)-4x-4)
In this problem (2)/(3)*-2=-4 and (2)/(3)-2=-4, so insert (2)/(3) as the right hand term of one factor and -2 as the right-hand term of the other factor.
-(3(x-2))/((x+(2)/(3))(x-2))
Remove the fraction by multiplying the first term of the factor by the denominator of the second term.
-(3(x-2))/((3x+2)(x-2))
Reduce the expression by canceling out the common factor of (x-2) from the numerator and denominator.
-(3/((3x+2))
Reduce the expression by canceling out the common factor of (x-2) from the numerator and denominator.
-(3)/(3x+2)
