Combining like terms is key in this expression.
4p - 2/4 • 2p + 5/2 • 2/3
Change denominators to be the same.
(2/4)(3) = 6/12
(5/2)(6) = 30/12
(2/3)(4) = 8/12
Now combine these three fractions.
-6/12 + 30/12 • 8/12
24/12 • 8/12
Reduce these two for easier work.
2/1 • 2/3 = 4/3
Combine the terms with p variables.
4p • 2p = 8p^2
Final answer is;
8p^2 + 4/3
