Hey there! :D
When a fraction is still divisible by a number, then it is not in it's simplest form.
For example, 3/6.
I know for a fact that 6/3=2 <== 3 is also divisible by itself.
3/6 (3/3=1) (6/6=1)
1/2 <== simplest form.
Try the same with 2/4.
4 is divisible by 2.
4/2= 2
2/2=1
1/2 is the simplest form.
I hope this helps!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin the solution by squaring both sides of the given equation. We get:
(3x - 4)^2 = 2x^2 - 2x + 2, or:
9x^2 - 24x + 16 = 2x ^2 - 2x + 2
Combining like terms results in:
7x^2 - 22x + 14 = 0
and the coefficients are a = 7, b = -22, c = 14, so that the discriminant of the quadratic formula, b^2 - 4ac becomes (-22)^2 - 4(7)(14) = 92
According to the quadratic formula, the solutions are
-b ± √discriminant -(-22) ± √92 22 ± √92
x = ------------------------------- = ----------------------- = ------------------------
