The Problem Says Simplify : 1/x-1/y/xy. I got x^2 y^2. But Thats Not One Of The Answers. Help Please.
-
(1/x - 1/y) / xy =
(1/x - 1/y)(xy) / (xy)(xy) =
(xy/x - xy/y) / (x^2 y^2) =
(y - x) / (x^2 y^2)
Is that one of the answers?
It could also be written as - ((x - y) / (x^2 y^2)), but I wouldn't consider that fully simplified.
