Let's factor out which is the denominator on the left side.







Looking at that factorization and comparing it to x(x+5)(x+3)(x+4), which is the denominator on the right side, all we're missing is (x+5).

So multiply top and bottom of the fraction on the left by (x+5) to get







This means that x(x+5) will go where the question mark is.

rewrite the rational expression as an equivalent rational expression with the given denominator
x/x^3+7x^2+12x=?/x(x+5)(x+3)(x+4)

-------------- Factoring left denominator
----- The binomial: "x + 5" is needed in the LEFT-DENOMINATOR to be equivalent to the right-denominator. It MUST be included in the LEFT-NUMERATOR as well
---- Equivalency is NOW obtained
