Question 317736: Simplify: x^2+3x-4 division sign X^2+5x-6
X^2+6x+8 x^2+7x+6 the problem should be the first row on top with the division sign in the middle

X^2+6x+8 / x^2+7x+6
x^2+4x+2x+8 / x^2+6x+x+6
x(x+4)+2(x+4) / x(x+6)+1(x+6)
(x+6)(x+2) / (x+1)(x+6)
=(x+2) / (x+1)
..
x^2+3x-4 / X^2+5x-6
x^2+4x-x-4 / x^2+6x-x-6
x(x+4)-1(x+4) / x(x+6)-1(x+6)
(x-1)(x+4) / (x-1)(x+6)
(x-4) / (x+6)
