The key to simplifying these fractions with a fraction is to multiply the numerator and denominator of the "big" fraction by the Lowest Common Denominator (LCD) of the "little" fractions within the "big" fraction.

%284+%2B+12%2F%282x-3%29%29%2F%285+%2B+15%2F%282x-3%29%29
The LCD of the "little" fractions is (2x-3).
