The given expression is:
Since the denominators is the same for all the 3 expressions, the LCM will be the smae. That is
Hence, the given expression can be written as:
This can be written as:
Simplifying this further, we get:
Here, both the numerator and the denominator can be factored and can be written as:
This can be written as:
Here we observe that (x + 7) is present both in the numerator and the denominator.
Hence, we remain with
Thus, the solution.
