Simplify (x^3y^2)/(xy^2)

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

Step 1

Cancel the common factor of $x^{3}$ and $x$ .

Factor $x$ out of $x^{3} y^{2}$ .

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

Cancel the common factors.

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

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

Cancel the common factor.

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

Rewrite the expression.

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

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

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

Step 2

Cancel the common factor of $y^{2}$ .

Cancel the common factor.

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

Divide $x^{2}$ by $1$ .

$x^{2}$

$x^{2}$
