Derivation

  1. Initial program 6.3

    \[x - \frac{y \cdot \left(z - t\right)}{a}\]
  2. Using strategy rm

  3. Applied *-commutative6.3

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{\color{blue}{\left(z - t\right) \cdot y}}{a}\]

  4. Applied associate-/l*2.5

    \[\leadsto x - \color{blue}{\frac{z - t}{\frac{a}{y}}}\]

  5. Final simplification2.5

    \[\leadsto x - \frac{z - t}{\frac{a}{y}}\]
