$\"+%282n%2B3%29%2F%28n%2B1%29+=+3%2F2+\"$ Cross multiply
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+2%282n%2B3%29+=+3%28n%2B1%29+\"$ distribute
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+4n+%2B+6+=+3n+%2B+3+\"$ subtract 3n from both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+%2B+6+=+3+\"$ subtract 6 from both sides
\n" ); document.write( " $\"+n+=+-3+\"$
\n" ); document.write( "-3 does not make the denominator zero .... so this is the solution \n" ); document.write( "
