To Reduce an Algebraic Fraction
To Reduce an Algebraic Fraction is a skill on Pengi from Lesson 5: Chapter Summary and Review in Yoshiwara Elementary Algebra.
Key Concepts
Property 1. Factor numerator and denominator completely. 2. Divide numerator and denominator by any common factors. We can cancel common factors (expressions that are multiplied together), but not common terms (expressions that are added or subtracted).
Examples Problem: Reduce the fraction $\frac{x^2 + 3x + 2}{x^2 4}$.
Step 1: Factor everything. The numerator factors into $(x+1)(x+2)$. The denominator is a difference of squares, factoring into $(x 2)(x+2)$.
