Simplify (9x^2 - 3x)/(6x - 45x^2)

Question

Simplify
`(9x^2 - 3x)/(6x - 45x^2)`

Answer 1

There are multiple ways of going about this, but what I find easiest for a problem like this is to find the GCF of all the terms.

The GCF of
`9x^2,-3x,6x,-45x^2` is
`3x`.

Meaning that we can take out 3x out of all the terms and still be left with the simplest, yet equivalent for of the expression.

`(2x-1)/(2-15x)`
