1.)x2+5x+4
---------
x2+x
===============
Factor so you can simplify:
= [(x+4)(x+1)]/[x(x+1)]
Cancel the (x+1) factor that is common to numerator and denominator to get:
= (x+4)/x
==============================================================================

Cancel the (x+2) factor that is commonto the numerator and denominator to get:
= (x+2)/(x-2)
