Perform the division. Assume that no denominators are 0. Simplify your answer if possible.

Solution

(3xz/z) / (6x^2/z^2)

Use the property: (a/b) /( d/c) = (a*c)/(b*d)

(3xz/z) / (6x^2/z^2) = (3xz*z^2)/(6x^2*z)

cancel: z^3 in numerator by z in denominator

= (3xz^2/6x^2)

cancel : x^2 in den. by x in numerator

= (z^2/2x)
