I think you mean
%28%28x%2Bh%29%2F%282-x-h%29%29-%28x%2F%282-x%29%29
cross multiply to get
%28%28x%2Bh%29%282-x%29+-+x%282-x-h%29%29%2F%28%282-x-h%29%282-x%29%29
simplify the numerator to get
%282x-x%5E2%2B2h-hx-2x%2Bx%5E2%2Bxh%29%2F%28%282-x-h%29%282-x%29%29
we get
%282h%29%2F%28%282-x-h%29%282-x%29%29
