Solution Steps

To simplify the given rational expression, we need to identify and cancel out common factors in the numerator and the denominator. In this case, the common factors are \((v+2)\) and \((3v-7)\). After canceling these common factors, we simplify the expression to its simplest form.

Step 1: Identify the Rational Expression

We start with the rational expression given by:

\[ \frac{18(v+2)(3v-7)}{6(v+2)(3v-7)} \]

Step 2: Factor Out Common Terms

In both the numerator and the denominator, we can identify the common factors \((v+2)\) and \((3v-7)\). Thus, we can rewrite the expression as:

\[ \frac{18 \cdot (v+2) \cdot (3v-7)}{6 \cdot (v+2) \cdot (3v-7)} = \frac{18}{6} \]

Step 3: Simplify the Expression

Now, we simplify the fraction:

\[ \frac{18}{6} = 3 \]

Final Answer

The simplified form of the given rational expression is

\(\boxed{3}\)
