Lesson 38: More Operations on Fractions

The lesson begins with a definition of a "complex" fraction and then presents a procedure for simplifying them (multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the lcd of all fractions contained in the complex fraction). Exercises with negative exponents are covered before applications are presented. The lesson concludes with division of polynomials.
