Simplify:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28%28x%29%2F%28x%5E2-3x%2B2%29%29-%282%2F%28x%5E2-3x%2B2%29%29\"$ Since there is a common denominator, you can subtract the numerators:
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28%28x-2%29%29%2F%28x%5E2-3x%2B2%29\"$ Now factor the denominator.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28cross%28%28x-2%29%29%29%2F%28cross%28%28x-2%29%29%28x-1%29%29\"$ Cancel the indicated common factors.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"highlight%281%2F%28%28x%2B1%29%29%29\"$ \n" ); document.write( "
