I have to factorise the term:
(ax-bx-ay+by ) / (x-y)
I know the solution is " a - b "
I just don't know how to come to a solution
I tried:
(x (a-b) -y (a-b) ) / (x-y
but then it comes to
(a-b) (a-b)
which expands to a 2nd degree equation, so I really don't know how to exaclty factorise until (a-b) is the answer.
Nevermind I found how
(ax-bx-ay+by ) / (x-y)
(x (a-b) -y (a-b) ) / (x-y)
((x - y ) ( a - b ) )/ (x-y)
a - b
