Learn how to multiply rational expressions involving polynomials P, Q, R, and S, where Q and S are non-zero. This guide outlines the process in three steps: 1) Multiply the numerators and denominators directly. 2) Factor the numerators and denominators for simplification. 3) Simplify the resulting expression to its lowest terms. Understanding these steps helps in performing operations with rational expressions efficiently. Follow our example to see the method in action and master multiplying rational expressions effectively.
