SOLUTION: Multiply and simplify
((36d^2)/(2d^2-16d+32))*((2d-8/(6d))
Would I flip the numerator and denominator in the second and multiply and simplify??

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Multiply and simplify

No flipping because you are not dividing by a fraction.
You have (a/b)*(c/d)
The product is (ac)/(bd)
------------------------------
((36d^2)/(2d^2-16d+32))*((2d-8/(6d))
Factor where you can.
((36d^2)/(2(d^2-8d+16))*((2(d-4))/(6d))
((36d^2)/(2(d-4)^2))*((2(d-4))/(6d))
----
Cancel where you can to get.
((6d)/((d-4)))*((1))/(1))
----
= (6d)/(d-4)
================
