Question 243368: I'm not sure that I'm asking this in the right section, but I'm not really sure where I would need to ask it anyways.
The answer is:
3p/2
The problem is this:
((2p-2)/p) * ((6p^2)/(8p*8))
I'm not sure how to get to that answer
and I think I don't have a clue on how to even start this one.
I started by put the 2 sides together
(2p-2)6p^2
----------
p(8p*8)

3(x-1)

That's a good start
= %282p-2%29%2A6p%5E2%2F%2864p%5E2%29
Cancel the p^2 terms
= %282p-2%29%2A6%2F64
= 2%2A%28p-1%29%2A6%2F64
= 3(p-1)/16

3(p-1)/16 is incorrect
