Simplest common denominator is %282x%2B5%29%283x%29; and best way to solve the equation is multiply left and right members by 3x%282x%2B5%29.

Second step is 3x%287x%2B1%29%2B3%2A4x%282x%2B5%29=%282x%2B5%29%2810x-3%29

Continue this on your own, and solve the resulting quadratic equation. Be aware of any possible restrictions on the result.
