             3x + 15

        _______________      note: 3x^2 + 24x + 45 ≠ 0

        3x^2 + 24x + 45 





           3(x + 5)

       ________________    (3x + 9) (x + 5)≠ 0

       (3x + 9) (x + 5) 





            

       ________________              restrictions  x = -5

       (x + 3)                          x = -3



           

              1

           ________

            x + 3
