① | Factor both the denominator and the numerator, then cancel the common factor. $\color{blue}{s-2}$. $$ \begin{aligned} \frac{s^3+15s^2-34s}{7s-14} & =\frac{ \left( s^2+17s \right) \cdot \color{blue}{ \left( s-2 \right) }}{ 7 \cdot \color{blue}{ \left( s-2 \right) }} = \\[1ex] &= \frac{s^2+17s}{7} \end{aligned} $$ |
