How do I multiply this fraction?
[ (x2 � y2) / (x2 + xy) ][ (3x2 + 6xy ) / (x2 + xy � 2y2) ]
[ (x^2 � y^2) / (x^2 + xy) ][ (3x^2 + 6xy ) / (x^2 + xy � 2y^2) ]

with 2 fractions you multiply straight across and then simplify if possible,
for example 2/3 * 3/5 = 6/15 = 2/5
in this problem's case I simplified the numerators and denominators and factored out the like terms, then I multiplied and simplified
