  HOW TO MULTIPLY RATIONALEXPRESSIONS?
• 3.
  • Operations likemultiplication and division are very common in fractions. • These operations can also be performed to rational expressions.
• 4.
  • To obtainthe product of two or more rational expressions, we get the product of the numerators as well as the product of the denominators of the given expressions.
• 5.
  • Rational expressionsare multiplied in a similar manner as multiplying rational numbers. • The rational expressions must be factored first before multiplying them so that common factors can be cancelled.

  HOW TO DIVIDERATIONAL EXPRESSIONS?
• 10.
  • In dividingrational expressions, we multiply the numerator by the reciprocal of the denominator. • 𝐴 𝐵 ÷ 𝐶 𝐷 = 𝐴 𝐵 ∙ 𝐷 𝐶 = 𝐴𝐷 𝐵𝐶

  Divide & simplify: EXAMPLE 1. 𝒙𝟐+𝟐𝒙−𝟖 𝒙 𝟐+𝟒𝒙+𝟑 ÷ 𝒙−𝟐 𝟑𝒙+𝟑 = 𝒙 𝟐 + 𝟐𝒙 − 𝟖 𝒙 𝟐 + 𝟒𝒙 + 𝟑 ∙ 𝟑𝒙 + 𝟑 𝒙 − 𝟐 = 𝒙 + 𝟒 𝒙 − 𝟐 ∙ 𝟑 𝒙 + 𝟏 𝒙 + 𝟏 𝒙 + 𝟑 ∙ (𝒙 − 𝟐) = 𝟑 𝒙 + 𝟒 𝒙 + 𝟑 𝒐𝒓 𝟑𝒙 + 𝟏𝟐 𝒙 + 𝟑
• 12.
  Divide & simplify: EXAMPLE 2. 𝒙𝟐−𝟔𝒙+𝟗 𝟒𝒙−𝟏𝟐 ÷ 𝒙 − 𝟑 = 𝒙 𝟐 − 𝟔𝒙 + 𝟗 𝟒𝒙 − 𝟏𝟐 ∙ 𝟏 𝒙 − 𝟑 = 𝒙 − 𝟑 𝒙 − 𝟑 ∙ 𝟏 𝟒 𝒙 − 𝟑 ∙ (𝒙 − 𝟑) = 𝟏 𝟒
