Is it like that?
Cancel an x in each DEN
=
Factor some
=
Cancel in the top fraction:
= %28%28x%2B2%29%2A%28x-5%29%2F1%29%2F%28%28%28x%2B6%29%2A%28x-5%29%29%2F2%29
Cancel x-5
= %28%28x%2B2%29%2F1%29%2F%28%28x%2B6%29%2F2%29
= %28%282x%2B4%29%2F2%29%2F%28%28x%2B6%29%2F2%29
= %28%282x%2B4%29%29%2F%28%28x%2B6%29%29
==========================
It's easier to do these on paper.
