And that's where I stopped.  Yeah.  The expression has complex fractions and involves variables.  It is <IMG STYLE=\"max-width:80%;\" SRC=/cgi-bin/plot-formula.mpl?expression=7%2F6%28x-2%29-%28x-3%29%2F6x ALIGN=MIDDLE  ALT=\"7%2F6%28x-2%29-%28x-3%29%2F6x\"   DISABLED_style= \"max-width:90%; height:auto;\" >.  Where do I start?  I believe that I multiply 6(x-2) by 6x however there's already a 6 in both denominators so do I just ignore this and multiply by (x-2)?  I'm very confused.  Can you help me? </SPAN>\n" );
