simplify $\"%28%28v%5E3-4v%29%29%2F%28%282v%5E2-5v%2B2%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "factor out v in the numerator
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28v%28v%5E2-4%29%29%2F%28%282v%5E2-5v%2B2%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Factor again, cancel out (v-2)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28v%28v-2%29%28v%2B2%29%29%2F%28%282v-1%29%28v-2%29%29%29\"$ = $\"%28v%28v%2B2%29%29%2F%28%282v-1%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
