Full solution

Q. Multiply. Simplify your answer.\newline13w2x18x2×10wx\frac{13w^2x}{18x^2} \times 10wx
  1. Factor out common terms: Write down the multiplication problem and factor out any common terms if possible.\newlineWe have (13w2x18x2)×(10wx)(\frac{13w^2x}{18x^2}) \times (10wx). First, we can factor out the common terms in the numerators and denominators.
  2. Cancel out x terms: Cancel out the common x terms from the numerator and denominator. The xx in the numerator of the first fraction and one xx from the x2x^2 in the denominator of the first fraction cancel out, leaving us with (13w218x)×(10wx)(\frac{13w^2}{18x}) \times (10wx).
  3. Cancel out w terms: Cancel out the common w terms from the numerator and denominator.\newlineThe ww in the numerator of the second fraction and one ww from the w2w^2 in the numerator of the first fraction cancel out, leaving us with (13w18x)×(10x)(\frac{13w}{18x}) \times (10x).
  4. Multiply numerators and denominators: Multiply the remaining terms in the numerators and denominators.\newlineNow we multiply the numerators together and the denominators together: (13w×10x)/(18x)(13w \times 10x) / (18x).
  5. Simplify numerator multiplication: Simplify the multiplication of the numerators. Multiplying the numerators gives us 130wx2130wx^2.
  6. Simplify denominator multiplication: Simplify the multiplication of the denominators.\newlineSince there is only one term in the denominator, it remains 18x18x.
  7. Cancel out x terms: Cancel out the common x terms from the numerator and denominator. The xx in the numerator and the xx in the denominator cancel out, leaving us with 130w18\frac{130w}{18}.
  8. Simplify fraction: Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor if possible.\newlineThe greatest common divisor of 130130 and 1818 is 22. Dividing both by 22 gives us 65w9\frac{65w}{9}.
