Simplify Algebraic Fractions: Can You Cancel the 2 in (2x + 6)/2?

Can You Cancel the 2 in (2x + 6)/2?: a step-by-step Grade 8 Mathematics lesson for Kenya's CBE (CBC) curriculum (Junior School). Two learners simplify (2x + 6) over 2 and get different answers. Can you cancel the 2? Today, you're going to learn two safe ways to simplify it, and a number test to check. Chapters 0:00 Two answers, one question 0:28 The wrong move, and the number test 1:04 Right move A: take out the common factor 1:42 Right move B: divide every term 2:16 The rule: factors cancel, terms don't 2:44 We do: simplify (3x + 9)/3 3:25 You do: simplify (4x - 8)/4 4:06 Recap: only factors cancel Curriculum: Grade 8 Mathematics › Algebra › Algebraic Expressions (CBE, KICD) • Simplify algebraic simplify the algebraic fractions, simplify evaluating fractions in different e discuss how to substitute the algebraic algebraic situations, given numerical • Factorise algebraic unlike terms, and factorise algebraic expressions in different algebraic expressions, expressions?
