complex faction: w + 3 / 4w / w - 3 / 2w

What are you supposed to do with it? Simplify?

Reciprocal and Multiply.

\(\displaystyle \L\;\frac{w+3}{4w}*\frac{2w}{w-3}\)

Now what?
 
Re: complex faction

Hello, dkarolasz!

Exactly where is your difficulty?

You know to divide by a fraction: invert and multiply . . .


\(\displaystyle \L\frac{\frac{w\,+\,3}{4w}} {\frac{w\,-\,3}{2w}} \;=\;\frac{w\,+\,3}{_2\not{4}\not{w}}\,\cdot\,\frac{\not{2}\not{w}}{w\,-\,3} \;=\;\frac{w\,+\,3}{2(w\,-\,3)}\)
