Question 943114: Need help solving the following rational equation,
(q)/(q-2)+(1)/(q^2-4)=(3q-1)/(3q+6)
I think the non-permissible values are q cannot = -2,0,3. I am having trouble even figuring out what the LCD is, so obviously I have no clue on how to proceed with the solving!

Hint: Factor q^2 - 4 to (q-2)(q+2) using difference of squares, and 3q+6 to 3(q+2).
