Question 1168747
<br>
I don't know what "simplify a problem" means....  I understand "simplify an  expression" or "simplify a fraction".<br>
But that doesn't matter, because I have ABSOLUTELY no idea what the original problem is, or what you are doing to try to "simplify it".<br>
If you want help with your question, take the time to present it clearly -- and to present the work you did on the problem clearly also.<br>
