You can put this solution on YOUR website!
b%2F%28b-1%29+%2B+%282b%29%2F%28b%5E2+-+1%29+
b%2F%28b-1%29+%2B+%282b%29%2F%28%28b-1%29%28b%2B1%29%29+

The LCD= (b-1)(b+1).

You must multiply numerator and denominator of the first fraction times (b+1):


%28b%5E2+%2B+b%29%2F%28%28b-1%29%28b%2B1%29%29+%2B+%282b%29%2F%28%28b-1%29%28b%2B1%29%29+
%28b%5E2+%2Bb+%2B+2b%29%2F%28%28b-1%29%28b%2B1%29%29+
%28b%5E2+%2B3b%29%2F%28%28b-1%29%28b%2B1%29%29+
%28b%28b%2B3%29%29%2F%28%28b-1%29%28b%2B1%29%29+

Answer does not reduce!
