Worksheet: Simplifying Complex Fractions

In this worksheet, we will practice simplifying complex fractions involving monomials or polynomials.

Q1:

Consider the expression . It is often easier to rewrite the expression using the division symbol as follows: 3𝑥𝑦5𝑥𝑦÷6𝑥5𝑦. Then, we can rewrite the expression using the multiplication symbol: 3𝑥𝑦5𝑥𝑦×5𝑦6𝑥. Now, use this form to help you simplify the original expression.

  • A𝑦2𝑥
  • B5𝑦2𝑥
  • C5𝑦2𝑥
  • D𝑦2𝑥
  • E𝑦2𝑥

Q2:

  • A𝑛(𝑥)=7, domain =ℝ
  • B𝑛(𝑥)=17, domain =ℝ−{−6,−3}
  • C𝑛(𝑥)=17, domain =ℝ−{−6}
  • D𝑛(𝑥)=7, domain =ℝ−{−6}
  • E𝑛(𝑥)=7, domain =ℝ−{−6,−3}
