---------------
This can't be solved, but it can be simplified.
Notice that in the NUM, both terms are the third power, n^3 and 3^3. Any binomial with odd exponents can be factored.
You can always just divide it out, too, with long division of synthetic division.
----------
n%5E3+-+27+=+%28n-3%29%2A%28n%5E2+%2B+3n+%2B+9%29
The (n-3)'s cancel, so
it's n%5E2+%2B+3n+%2B+9
