Factor first (if possible)
Cancel/Cross out common terms
Multiply across

Multiplying Rational Expressions
We can "cross cancel" because multiplication is commutative and because we are multiplying across
Factor first, then reduce!! (same as simplifying)

Can't be simplified
8
Dividing Rational Expressions
Similar to multiplying rational expressions with one extra step in the beginning
Can't divide by fractions so we have to flip it. (Keep Change Flip)
Then we follow the steps to multiply rational expressions!
