Simplify: $\"%2810xy%5E2+-+5x%5E2%29%2F%284x+-+8y%5E2%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "Factor out common terms
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%285x%282y%5E2+-+x%29%29%2F%284%28x+-+2y%5E2%29%29\"$
\n" ); document.write( "factor out -1 in the denominator, changes the signs, cancel (2y^2-x)
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%285x%282y%5E2+-+x%29%29%2F%28-4%282y%5E2+-+x%29%29\"$ = $\"%285x%29%2F%28-4%29\"$ = $\"-5%2F4\"$ x
