Answer (3)

r − 2 2 r − 4 ​ r − 2  = 0 r  = 2 r − 2 2 r − 4 ​ = ( r − 2 ) 2 ( r − 2 ) ​ = 2

2r-4/r-2 = 2(r-2)/r-2 = 2

The expression r − 2 2 r − 4 ​ simplifies to 2 when r  = 2 . This is done by factoring the numerator and canceling out the common term in the numerator and denominator. Therefore, the final result is 2 .
