Simplify

(\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2})^{2} : \frac{2 - 3}{4}

(\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} - \frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2})^{2}

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} = \frac{6}{4}

\frac{2}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2}

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{2 3}{2 \cdot 2}

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 2 = 4

= \frac{2 3}{4}

Simplify

23 : 6

23

Apply radical rule:

a b = a \cdot b

23 = 2 \cdot 3

= 2 \cdot 3

Multiply the numbers:

2 \cdot 3 = 6

= 6

= \frac{6}{4}

\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2} = \frac{2}{4}

\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{2}{2}

Multiply fractions:

Combine the fractions

\frac{6}{4} - \frac{2}{4} : \frac{6 - 2}{4}

Apply rule

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

= \frac{6 - 2}{4}

= (\frac{6 - 2}{4})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

(\frac{a}{b})^{c} = \frac{a ^{c}}{b ^{c}}

= \frac{( 6 - 2 ) ^{2}}{4 ^{2}}

(6 - 2)^{2} = 8 - 43

(6 - 2)^{2}

Apply Perfect Square Formula:

(a - b)^{2} = a^{2} - 2 ab + b^{2}

a = 6, b = 2

= (6)^{2} - 262 + (2)^{2}

Simplify

(6)^{2} - 262 + (2)^{2} : 8 - 43

(6)^{2} - 262 + (2)^{2}

(6)^{2} = 6

(6)^{2}

Apply radical rule:

a = a^{\frac{1}{2}}

= (6^{\frac{1}{2}})^{2}

Apply exponent rule:

= 6^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2}

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2 = 1

\frac{1}{2} \cdot 2

Multiply fractions:

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

= \frac{1 \cdot 2}{2}

Cancel the common factor:

Factor integer

6 = 2 \cdot 3

= 2 2 \cdot 3 2

Apply radical rule:

2 \cdot 3 = 23

= 1

= 2

= 6 - 43 + 2

Add the numbers:

6 + 2 = 8

Factor

8 - 43 : 4 (2 - 3)

8 - 43

Rewrite as

Factor out common term

4
