Question

Simplify the fraction -(2x/-xy) completely.

Answer 1

`-( (2x)/(-xy) )`

Remove parentheses : (a) = a


`= - (2x)/(-xy)`

Apply the fraction rule :
`(a)/(-b) = - (a)/(b)`


`= - ( -(2x)/(xy) )`

Cancel the common factor : x


`= - (- (2)/(y) )`

Apply rule - ( - a ) = a

Solution:


`= (2)/(y)`
