Hi, try this: mySimplify[f_] := Simplify[f, Assumptions -> {Meter > 0, Second > 0}] Sqrt[Meter^2/Second^2]*Second/Meter^2 // mySimplify 1/Meter Have fun, Alexei Hi, Working with units I get correct result: Sqrt[Meter^2/Second^2] Second)/Meter^2 How to tell Mathematica to simplify the result to Meter^-1? Simplify and FullSimplify doesn't do the job. Thanks in advance, --Ted -- Alexei Boulbitch, Dr. habil. Senior Scientist Material Development IEE S.A.
