I fixed your question because what you actually asked was:
"Evaluate
" Parentheses are extremely important. So is proofreading your post BEFORE you submit.
Perform the binomial expansion and collect like terms. Given correct arithmetic, all of the numerator terms should contain one or more factors of
, so you can eliminate the
in the denominator.
