Question

write in simplest form
14a^2 / 24a
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The simplest form of $\frac{14a^2}{24a}$  is $\mathbf{\frac{7a}{12}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write $\frac{14a^2}{24a}$ in simplest form.

We know the exponent rule: $\frac{a^m}{a^n}=a^{m-n}$

Applying the rule:

$\frac{14a^2}{24a} \\=\frac{14a^{2-1}}{24}\\Since \ 14 \ and \ 24 \ are \ divisible\ by \ 2 \\=\frac{7a^1}{12} \\=\frac{7a}{12}$

The simplest form of $\frac{14a^2}{24a}$  is $\mathbf{\frac{7a}{12}}$
