simplify ((1/x-1))/(x-1)

Solution

simplify

\frac{( \frac{1}{x} - 1 )}{x - 1}

Solution

- \frac{1}{x}

Solution steps

\frac{\frac{1}{x} - 1}{x - 1}

Join

\frac{1}{x} - 1 : \frac{- x + 1}{x}

= \frac{\frac{- x + 1}{x}}{x - 1}

Apply the fraction rule:

\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{c} = \frac{a}{b \cdot c}

= \frac{- x + 1}{x ( x - 1 )}

Cancel

\frac{- x + 1}{x ( x - 1 )} : - \frac{1}{x}

= - \frac{1}{x}
