+%28%28x%5E3-5x%5E2-x-5%29%2F%28x%5E2-+25%29%29%28x%2B1%29+ Factor first
+%28%28x%5E2%28x-5%29-1%28x-5%29%29%2F%28%28x-5%29%28x%2B5%29%29%29%28x%2B1%29+
+%28%28%28x%5E2-1%29%28x-5%29%29%2F%28%28x-5%29%28x%2B5%29%29%29%28x%2B1%29+ Cancel the x-5
+%28%28x%5E2-1%29%2F%28x%2B5%29%29%28x%2B1%29+ factor som more
+%28%28%28x-1%29%28x%2B1%29%29%2F%28x%2B5%29%29%28x%2B1%29+ Multiply
+%28%28x-1%29%28x%2B1%29%5E2%29%2F%28x%2B5%29+ If your instructor wants you to multiply the top back out ... do it. I would leave it like this.
