(4/3n)+(2/n+1)+(2/n^2+n)

4%2F%283n%29%2B2%2F%28n%2B1%29%2B2%2F%28n%5E2%2Bn%29
:
4%2F%283n%29%2B2%2F%28n%2B1%29%2B2%2F%28n%28n%2B1%29%29
:
The common denominator would be 3n(n+1):
%284%28n%2B1%29+%2B+3n%282%29+%2B+3%282%29%29%2F%283n%28n%2B1%29%29
:
%284n+%2B+4+%2B+6n+%2B+6%29%2F%283n%28n%2B1%29%29
:
%2810n+%2B+10%29%2F%283n%28n%2B1%29%29 = %2810%28n+%2B+1%29%29%2F%283n%28n%2B1%29%29 = 10%2F%283n%29
