Simplify (2yx^4)/(4y^4)

$\frac{2 y x^{4}}{4 y^{4}}$

Step 1

Cancel the common factor of $2$ and $4$ .

Factor $2$ out of $2 y x^{4}$ .

$\frac{2 (y x^{4})}{4 y^{4}}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $2$ out of $4 y^{4}$ .

$\frac{2 (y x^{4})}{2 (2 y^{4})}$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{2 (y x^{4})}{2 (2 y^{4})}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{y x^{4}}{2 y^{4}}$

$\frac{y x^{4}}{2 y^{4}}$

$\frac{y x^{4}}{2 y^{4}}$

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of $y$ and $y^{4}$ .

Factor $y$ out of $y x^{4}$ .

$\frac{y (x^{4})}{2 y^{4}}$

Cancel the common factors.

Factor $y$ out of $2 y^{4}$ .

$\frac{y (x^{4})}{y (2 y^{3})}$

Cancel the common factor.

$\frac{y x^{4}}{y (2 y^{3})}$

Rewrite the expression.

$\frac{x^{4}}{2 y^{3}}$

$\frac{x^{4}}{2 y^{3}}$

$\frac{x^{4}}{2 y^{3}}$
