Does the denominator have to be even out so adding and subtracting for the numerator will be easier?
2x+5/x+1 + x+7/x+5 - 5x+17/x^2+6x+5
2x+5/x+1
Add x+7/x+5
Subtract 5x+17/x^2+6x+5
==========================
The DENs have to be the same to add or subtract.
x^2+6x+5 is the product of the other 2 DENs.
