I don't even know if this is possible, but I have the following fraction:

(100K) / (x^2 + (25 + a)x + (25a + 100K)

I need it to look like this:

K / (x^2 + Bx + K)

where K and B can be any combination of variables. The difficulty is that I can't have a scaling factor outside of the fraction. I already got that far:

(1/(1 + .25a)) * ( (100K + 25a) / (x^2 + (25 + a)x + (25a + 100K))

I'm not sure I understand your problem, but I had to answer because of your name...

If you make the change of variables y = x/10 then the fraction becomes

K/(y^2 + y*(25+a)/10 + (25+100K)/100).

Is this what you want?

I don't think you're stating your problem that clearly.

The way I read it, you could just set B = (25+a)/100 and be done.

Since that's presumably not what you mean, I recommend rephrasing a bit.
