Does this do it like you want ? expr=(3.4*10^62 + 4.5*10^63 x)/(6.7*10^64 + 8.9*10^63 x) Simplify //@ (Factor /@ expr) Greetings F.Jaccard -----Message d'origine----- De : Scott Guthery [mailto:sguthery at mobile-mind.com] Envoyé : mardi, 15. juin 2004 08:50 À : mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Objet : [mg48761] Reduction of Coefficients Coming Out of Solve A rational polynomial result from Solve multiplies every coefficient by a large factor of 10, e.g. 10^62. Neither Simplify nor FullSimpify remove this common factor from the numerator and denominator. I can remove it by hand but there must be a Mathematica trick that removes it. What might it be? For example: (3.4*10^62 + 4.5*10^63 x)/(6.7*10^64 + 8.9*10^63 x). Thanks for any insight. Cheers, Scott
