Identifying Common Factors in Rational Division

An operations analyst is documenting the calculation for a performance ratio R(x)R(x) derived from dividing f(x) = rac{3x^2}{x^2 - 4x} by g(x) = rac{9x^2 - 45x}{x^2 - 7x + 10}. According to the simplification procedure for this specific problem, identify the specific common factors—including the constant, the variables, and the binomial—that must be divided out from both the numerator and the denominator during the final simplification step.
