+%28%28x%5E2-3x%2B2%29%2F%288x-8%29%29%2F%28%28x%5E2-4%29%2F%285x%2B10%29%29+
factor all parts

Memorize and apply this rule:
+%28a%2Fb%29%2F%28c%2Fd%29+=+ad%2Fbc+
+%28%28x-1%29%28x-2%29%285%28x%2B2%29%29%29%2F%28%288%28x-1%29%29%28x%2B2%29%28x-2%29%29%29+
Cancel like quantities (x-1) and (x-2) and (x+2)
+5%2F8+
