Simplify 24ab^2 / 6b

To begin this question, it is first necessary to separate the different parts: the numbers, the as and the bs.The number division is simple. 24/6 = 46b has no values of a. Therefore, the a remains untouched.Focusing on the values of b, the equation asks for b^2 /b. b^2 = bb. Therefore bb/b = b.Putting the parts back together we have the number, 4, one a and one b, making 4ab.
