You can put this solution on YOUR website!
$\"c%2Fb-c%2F%28abc%29\"$ Start with the given expression.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28c%2Aac%29%2F%28b%2Aac%29-c%2F%28abc%29\"$ Multiply the first fraction by $\"ac%2Fac\"$ to get the denominators equal\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28ac%5E2%29%2F%28abc%29-c%2F%28abc%29\"$ Multiply\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28ac%5E2-c%29%2F%28abc%29\"$ Combine the fractions\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28c%28ac-1%29%29%2F%28abc%29\"$ Factor out the GCF from the numerator\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28cross%28c%29%28ac-1%29%29%2F%28ab%2Across%28c%29%29\"$ Cancel out like terms.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28ac-1%29%2F%28ab%29\"$ Simplify\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So $\"c%2Fb-c%2F%28abc%29=%28ac-1%29%2F%28ab%29\"$ where $\"a%3C%3E0\"$ , $\"b%3C%3E0\"$ or $\"c%3C%3E0\"$ \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
