Question 1089763

simplify (6x³/3x⁴)²
<pre>Good Lord! I feel sorry for the person who looked at Jim Thompson's solution. Why do some of these people make these SIMPLE solutions/simplifications
so lengthy and complex? It's like the math problem can be written in 2 sentences, yet they write NOVELS, and sometimes they create MOVIES.
{{{(6x^3/(3x^4))^2)}}} 
{{{(2cross(6)x^3/(cross(3)x^4))^2}}} ------- Reducing the constants in the numerator and denominator
{{{(2cross(x^3)/(x * cross(x^4)))^2}}} ------ Reducing the fraction in the parentheses by canceling the variables
{{{highlight_green(4/x^2)}}} <====== This is how SIMPLE this is!</pre>
