these types of problems i need help solving 😵‍💫

sleek kite
#

factorise the numerators and denominators and cross cancel

#

((2c+1)(c-1))/((c+4)(c-4))
((c-4)(c-4))/((2c+1)(c-4))

((c-1))/((c+4))
((c-4))/((c-4))
((c-1)/(c+4))×1

sorry i was gone

#

let me try it

#

can you expalin it a little simpler its my first time doing a problem like this

sleek kite
#

so you factorise the top and bottom of each side

#

then you look diagonally, so numerator of the left one and the denominator of the right one, and the denominator of the left one and the numerator of the right

#

if any of the factors match up then you can cancel them out

#

then just continue with multiplying them as usual
