Question 945752

How would I simplify to lowest terms 2x^2+5x-3/2x^2+x-1?
<pre><font face = "Tohoma" size = 4 color = "indigo"><b>{{{(2x^2 + 5x - 3)/(2x^2 + x - 1)}}}
{{{(2x - 1)(x + 3)/(2x - 1)(x + 1)}}} ------ Factoring numerator and denominator
{{{cross((2x - 1))(x + 3)/cross((2x - 1))(x + 1)}}}_______{{{highlight_green((x + 3)/(x + 1))}}}        
You can do the check!!
