Question 308951: This is part of a problem I have to solve, which has to do with rational expressions... Need to check of -6 is a solution for this expression... Is just that I can get it!!!
when a= -6
%283a-5%29%2F%28a%5E2%2B4a%2B3%29%2B%282a%2B2%29%2F%28a%2B3%29=%28a-3%29%2F%28a%2B1%29
I am thinking that I am not simplifying or solving this right. lol
Thank you for all your help.

(-23 / 15) + (-10 / -3) = -9 / -5 ___ 15 looks good for multiplier

-23 + 50 = 27

27 = 27
