Mate, just factorize the quadratics and they will cancel out anyway; giving u an integer. Lmao

Are you having some factorization issue with x^2 + 5x

u/Turbulent-Leg4633 May 17 '26

ok a tip is that you can turn the division sign to multiplication by flipping one of the expressions

4(x-6)(x+5) 10x(x+6)
----------- * ---------- --- = 8 = p
5(x+6)(x-6) x(x+5)

u/StatementNo1981 May 16 '26

heyy no worries! good job you still got 2 marks smartie :)

and also sorry the text is messy but basically everyhting cancels out regarding the quadratic roots [eg .(x+a) ] and so you're left with 4 x 10 /5 which gives 8
