Factor $11x^2$ out of the numerator, and $6x$ out of the denominator. Divide $x^2$ by $x$ . Simplify the results.

$(11x^2-22x^2)/(6x-12x^2)$ =

Factor out $11x^2$ from the numerator, and $6x$ from the denominator.

$(11x^2(1-2))/(6x(1-2x))$ =

$(11x^2(-1))/(6x(1-2x))$

Simplify.

$(-11x^2)/(6x(1-2x))$

Divide $x^2$ by $x$ .

$(-11xcancel(""^2))/(6cancelx(1-2x))$

Simplify .

$(-11x)/(6(1-2x))$ =

$-(11x)/(6(1-2x)$
