Question #N938
If the expression $\frac{4x^3 + 2x^2 - 6x}{2x}$ is simplified, what is the result?
A. $2x^2 + x - 3$
B. $2x^3 + x^2 - 3x$
C. $2x^2 + x$
D. $2x^2 - 3$
Correct Answer is: A
Factoring out a 2x from the numerator, we get $\frac{2x(2x^2 + x - 3)}{2x}$. Since x cannot be 0, we can cancel out the common factor of 2x, resulting in $2x^2 + x - 3$.
