Multiplying rational expressions involves factoring numerators and denominators, then canceling common factors before multiplying across. Dividing is done by multiplying by the reciprocal of the divisor. For example, (x + 1)/(x – 2) ÷ (x² – 4)/(x + 1) becomes (x + 1)/(x – 2) × (x + 1)/(x² – 4). With x² – 4 factoring to (x – 2)(x + 2), you might simplify significantly. These operations underlie advanced algebraic manipulations, from partial fraction decomposition to real-world rate adjustments. Consistent practice fosters ease with fractional polynomials, bridging the gap to calculus and mathematical modeling.
