Dividing radicals

[Pinkjess182]

Directions: write each expression in simplest form.

3x-3radical3
5x-5radical3

I ended up with the answer

3x-9
5x-14
Sorry that I could't show my work. I'm typing this on my phone which really limits me. Thanks!

3(x-sqrt3)
5(x-sqrt3)

Then do I cancel out the (x-sqrt3) from numerator and denominator and end up with 3/5??

Yes, if it is understood that \(\displaystyle (x - \sqrt{3}) \ \ne \ 0\)
