Full solution

Q. Simplify. Write your answer using whole numbers and variables.\newlineg3g24g\frac{g}{3g^2 - 4g}
  1. Identify GCF of denominator: Identify the greatest common factor (GCF) of the terms in the denominator, 3g23g^2 and 4g4g.\newlineThe GCF is gg, because both terms are divisible by gg.
  2. Factor out GCF from denominator: Factor out the GCF, g g , from the denominator.3g24g=g(3g4)3g^2 - 4g = g(3g - 4)
  3. Rewrite expression with factored denominator: Rewrite the original expression with the factored denominator.\newline(g)/(3g24g)(g)/(3g^2 - 4g) becomes (g)/(g(3g4))(g)/(g(3g - 4))
  4. Cancel out common factor: Cancel out the common factor of gg from the numerator and the denominator.gg(3g4)\frac{g}{g(3g - 4)} simplifies to 13g4\frac{1}{3g - 4} because gg=1\frac{g}{g} = 1.
