To simplify the expression \( \frac{10x^3}{5x^2} \) first, we can reduce it step by step.
1. **Divide the coefficients**: \( \frac{10}{5} = 2 \)
2. **Divide the variables**: \( \frac{x^3}{x^2} = x^{3-2} = x^1 = x \)
So we simplify \( \frac{10x^3}{5x^2} \) to:
\[
2x
\]
Now, it appears you also want me to evaluate the second part \( \frac{2}{x} \).
Putting it all together, we don't have additional operations to perform with \( 2/x \), but we confirm that:
The simplified result is:
\[
2x
\]
If you seek further steps or combinations of the two terms \( 2x \) and \( \frac{2}{x} \), please clarify!
