Hi,

Mathematica does not seem to simplify the following expression:

(BesselJ[2, BesselJZero[0, n]] BesselJZero[0, n]^2)/ BesselJ[1,
  BesselJZero[0, n]]

(I believe the answer is 2 BesselJZero[0, n]^2)

Is there a way of making Mathematica deal with these types of expressions?

Many thanks in advance,

Sam
