Question

Simplify the following rational expression to determine if thegiven simplification is correct. If it is correct, select TRUE. If it isnot correct, select FALSE.8nn24n23

Answer 1

Given the following expression:

`(8n^3)/(24n^2)`

In order to confirm is the statement is true or false we have to simplify the expression itself to see if it equals n / 3.

`\begin{gathered} (8n^3)/(24n^2) \\ (8n)/(24) \\ =(n)/(3) \\ 8*3=24 \\ 8/24=3 \\ n=3\text{ or }(n)/(3) \end{gathered}`

Which means the statement is indeed true or the first option.
