-------------
40d
Divide this into pieces
8 b c d

40 1 1 d
Cancel like terms
1 b c 1

5 1 1 1
This leaves us
bc/5
Answer: [tex]\frac{bc}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the expression is:
[tex]\frac{8bcd}{40d}[/tex]
You need to remember that:
[tex]\frac{a}{a}=1[/tex]
Then, knowing this, you can simplify the expression:
[tex]=\frac{8bc(1)}{40}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{8bc}{40}[/tex]
Now, you need to reduce [tex]\frac{8}{40}[/tex]:
[tex]\frac{8}{40}=\frac{4}{20}=\frac{2}{10}=\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
Finally, rewritting the expression, you get this result:
[tex]=\frac{1bc}{5}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{bc}{5}[/tex]
