We have to simplify: 4t^2- 16/8/t - 2/6
4t^2- 16/8/t - 2/6
=> 4t^2- (16/8)/t - (2/6)
16/8 = 2 and 2/6 = 1/3
=> 4t^2- 2/t - 1/3
We can simplify 4t^2- 16/8/t - 2/6 as 4t^2- 2/t - 1/3.

4t^2- 16/8/t - 2/6
16/8/t = 16/8t
We'll divide by 8 both numerator and denominator:
16/8t = 2/t
Now, we'll reduce by 2 the term 2/6:
2/6 = 1/3
The simplified given expression is: 4t^2 - 2/t - 1/3
