Notes Over 11. 4 Simplifying a Rational Expression Rational A fraction whose numerator and denominator Expression are nonzero polynomials. Simplified When the numerator and denominator have no factors in common (other than 1) rational Expression CANCEL FACTORS NOT TERMS! Simplify the expression if possible. Since you cannot factor the numerator, and the numerator and denominator are not exactly the same then it is already simplified.
