Steps to simplify specific fraction

78 Views Asked by At

What are the steps to simplify the first fraction to the second?

$$\frac{\frac{3-(3+h)}{3(3 + h)}} {h} \implies \frac{-1}{3(3 + h)}$$

I assume the first step would be to re-write it like so:

$$\frac{3-(3+h)}{3(3 + h)h}$$

But after that I don't know where to go...

Notice, the following steps $$\frac{3-(3+h)}{3(3+h)h}$$$$=\frac{3-3-h}{3(3+h)h}$$$$=\frac{-h}{3(3+h)h}$$Cancelling $h$ in numerator & denominator $$=\frac{-1}{3(3+h)}$$
