Something simple enough, I want show (g^n) / (g^n -1) = 1 / 1 - g^(-n) step by step in maple.
The problem I'm having is getting maple to freeze the terms. Maple likes to simplify before I can have it do what I want. I suppose I could make everything a name and show it manually but I would like to force maple to do it.
first setting
h:=g^n/(g^n-1)
so first multiply the numerator and denominator by g^(-n)
