see my worksheet below.

you factor whatever you can.

this makes the job much simpler because a lot of the factors will cancel out and you are left with a simpler expression to work with.

here's my worksheet.

$$$

the solution makes use of the fact that:

if f(x) = a/b and h(x) = c/d, then

f(x) / h(x) = (a/b) / (c/d) = (a/b) * (d/c) = (a*d) / (b*c)
