Q. Simplify. Express your answer as a single fraction in simplest form.

\newline

\frac{2}{c} - \frac{b^3}{c}

Identify Common Denominator: Identify the common denominator for the fractions. Since both fractions have the same denominator $c$ , there is no need to find an LCM or adjust the fractions.
Combine Numerators: Combine the numerators over the common denominator. This gives us $(2 - b^3)/c$ .
Check for Simplification: Check if the numerator can be simplified further. Since $2$ and $b^3$ are not like terms, they cannot be combined or simplified further.
Write Final Answer: Write the final answer. The simplified expression is $(2 - b^3)/c$ .
