\[\Large \frac{ 3 }{ 4x+3 }+\frac{ 21 }{ 8x^2+26x+15 }\] \[\Large \frac{ 3 }{ 4x+3 }+\frac{ 21 }{ (4x+3)(2x+5)}\] \[\Large \frac{ 3(2x+5) }{ (4x+3)(2x+5) }+\frac{ 21 }{ (4x+3)(2x+5)}\] I'll let you finish

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

you got it, you can also write it as \[\Large \frac{ 6x+36 }{ (2x+5)(4x+3) }\] or as \[\Large \frac{ 6x+36 }{ 8x^2+26x+15 }\] or any combo of the two
