You can put this solution on YOUR website!
3%2F%28x%5E2-2x%2B1%29+3%2F%28x%5E2-4x%2B3%29
3%2F%28x-1%29%28x-1%29+3%2F%28x-3%29%28x-1%29
3%2F%28x-1%29%28x-1%29%28x-3%29+3%2F%28x-3%29%28x-1%29%28x-1%29
since the denominators are now the same, you can add them up
=6%2F%28x-1%29%28x-1%29%28x-3%29

simplified, it would be
=6%2F%28x-3%29%28x%5E2-2x%2B1%29
=6%2F%28x%5E3-2x%5E2%2Bx-3x%5E2%2B6x-3%29
=6%2F%28x%5E3-5x%5E2%2B7x-3%29
