Lesson: Simplifying Monomials: Quotient Rule Mathematics

In this lesson, we will learn how to divide monomials involving single and multiple variables.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

simplify quotients of numerical or algebraic monomials, including single or multiple variables (without exponents),
simplify quotients of numerical or algebraic monomials, including single or multiple variables (with exponents),
understand that the result of dividing one monomial by another will often, but not always, itself be a monomial,
divide monomials to solve geometric problems.
