Dividing RAE

This document discusses dividing rational algebraic expressions. It provides 5 examples of dividing polynomials where P/Q is divided by R/S. The expressions are divided using the property that P/Q divided by R/S is equal to PS/QR. The examples demonstrate how to divide polynomials with variables and simplify the resulting rational expressions. The document concludes by providing online worksheets and practice problems for students to review dividing rational expressions.
