SOLUTION: how do you multiply these rationals?
x(x-3)/(x-2) * (x+3)(x-2)/x
i got x^3(18)/(x-2) is that correct?

Cancel the x's
=
Cancel the (x-2) terms
=

x(x-3)/(x-2) * (x+3)(x-2)/x
------------------------
Cancel factors common to numerator and denominator
such as x and (x-2)
---------
= (x-3)/(x+3)
